I am an international development expert with extensive experience in accelerating gender-responsive finance and public sector development in emerging markets.
My strengths are delivering high-quality projects by managing diverse expert teams combined with thought leadership, strategic thinking, collaboration, innovation, and client centricity.
I have implemented innovative projects focusing on scalability, sustainability, and impact. These include integrating cloud technology in core banking in the Philippines, digital identity for undocumented individuals in Papua New Guinea, regional e-KYC platform in the Pacific, and central bank digital currency feasibility assessments.
I am a frequent speaker at international conferences and workshops and a board/advisory member of fintech firms and institutions.
My experience spans senior management positions at Asian Development Bank in the Philippines and Australia; senior positions at the Swedish Ministry of Finance, the Riksbank, and the Swedish Supervisory Authority.
I have held technical expert consultancy positions in supervision and regulation of financial institutions to the European Commission and the International monetary fund.
I have worked in countries across Africa, Asia, Australia, Central Asia, Europe, North America, and the Pacific.
