About

I am an internationally accredited ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Implementer and Lead Auditor — one of a select group of professionals globally who specialize in the design, implementation, auditing, and certification of Artificial Intelligence Management Systems (AIMS) under the world's first and only internationally recognized AI governance standard. My work sits at the intersection of technology, risk, ethics, regulation, and human accountability. I do not just help organizations comply with a standard — I help them build the governance infrastructure that makes AI a sustainable, trusted, and strategic asset for the long term. I bring to every engagement a rare combination: deep technical fluency in how AI systems are built and deployed, and the regulatory and audit expertise to assess whether those systems are being governed responsibly. This dual perspective — implementer and auditor — means I understand not just what good governance looks like on paper, but what it looks like in practice, under pressure, and at scale. Over the course of my career, I have had the privilege of working with some of the most prestigious and complex organizations across finance, healthcare, aviation, and global enterprise: 🏦 Fannie Mae — Federal National Mortgage Association 🏦 Freddie Mac — Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation 🏦 Merrill Lynch — Global Wealth & Investment Management 🏦 Bank of America — One of the world's largest financial institutions 🏦 BNY Mellon — Global Investment & Custody Bank 🏥 Pfizer Australia — Global Pharmaceutical Leader 🏥 Blue Cross & Blue Shield — America's Largest Health Insurance Network 🏥 Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) — U.S. Federal Healthcare Agency ✈️ Emirates — One of the World's Most Prestigious Airlines 🌍 Abdul Latif Jameel — Diversified Global Enterprise Group
