Advancing Responsible Innovation and Digital Equity through Coaching and Advocacy

Effective digital leadership is the key to driving innovation while protecting rights and promoting fairness. Digital regulations set the standards, but it’s privacy and digital compliance professionals who bring those principles to life. My goal is to empower these professionals to shape technology in ways that are accessible, fair, and safe for everyone.

After many years as a Global Data Protection Officer, I understand firsthand the challenges that come with navigating the complex world of data privacy. That’s why I created the “How to DPO Like a Boss!” coaching program—to equip privacy professionals with the tools, confidence, and leadership skills they need to thrive.

Whether we connect through coaching, thought leadership, or collaboration, my mission is the same: to create a digital society that respects and uplifts every individual. Together, we can ensure ethical governance, meaningful compliance, and a more connected, transparent world.

Let’s build the future of digital innovation—one that works for everyone!
