Area of Expertise:
  • Trade, Finance, Economics, Cooperation, Global
Professional Experience:
With over ten(10) years of experience both in public and private sectors, I have engaged in developing effective policies, regulations, and strategies such as the Pacific Aid for Trade Strategy( 2020-2025) in my capacity as Trade Policy Adviser at the Pacific Islands Forum Secretariat (PIFS); initial Draft of Nauru’s Foreign Direct Investment Model Law for the Government of Nauru to mention but a few. Additionally, I am presently working as the Sub-Regional Trade Adviser for Melanesia with the Pacific Islands Forum Secretariat(PIFS) where my key role in the five countries I oversee (Fiji, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea) includes Trade Policy Development and Implementation to enable the countries effectively implement and fully participate in the Trade Agreements they are party to including their obligations to the World Trade Organization(WTO).
I believe these experiences including those provided in detail in my resume (attached) give me the requisite competence to undertake this assignment. Thus with a solid background in both the public and private sectors, I am well -capable of contributing and providing exceptional technical assistance and guidance that will prudentially influence the direction of the Committee’s work on the oversight of existing and prospective trade agreements, through the provision of seasoned and broad-based expert advise.
