Over a decade sitting across both sides of the table, first as in advisory at Protiviti Consulting advising energy companies, oil & gas companies, and infrastructure clients across the GCC, and as an operator at ADNOC Logistics & Services in UAE, an $11Bn listed entity running shipping, and logistics operations across 50+ countries. Now wrapping up my MBA at USC Marshall School of Business in Los Angeles. On the advisory side, I led risk, transformation, and governance engagements for UAE and KSA's largest energy, utility and oil & gas entities, managing C-suite relationships, driving operational improvements and building capabilities across 4+ government energy clients simultaneously. On the operator side, I worked directly with the senior leadership on decisions that mattered, like pre-readiness for IPO, safeguarding ~$10Bn in maritime assets during the Red Sea crisis, 15+ EPC and M&A investment assessments and leading the company's pandemic response across a 50-country operation. Now I'm moving from advising on value to creating it. Open to portfolio value creation, business transformation, and strategy roles across the USA and UAE primarily in energy and infrastructure, but ready to bring this experience to any sector that needs sharp operational and investment thinking.
