Data Protection Lead

My background in front line operations, compliance, management and training in financial institutions, stood me in good stead when I fell into the world of Data Protection.  I qualified as a Data Protection Practitioner in December 2019 and I've been hooked ever since!

Recognised as being a highly motivated individual with strong communication skills, I was shortlisted and a finalist in the categories of Rising Star and Compliance Officer of the year at the PICASSO awards in 2022.

Having presented at a number of international conferences, spoken on panels and contributed to international privacy drives I enjoy enthusing others, sharing my knowledge to stakeholders helping them develop and strong and uncomplicated privacy culture and ethos across the organisation.

As an ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems Lead Auditor, I believe that compliance of all relevant legislation should part of an organisations culture and not a tick box exercise. My ability to interpret and delivery regulatory requirements across the business, whilst maintaining high internal principles and keeping external business drivers at the fore, ensures that compliance does not become an afterthought in the business.

In my current role, I work with a number of international clients of all sizes, helping them to develop and deliver their privacy programme in a manner that suits their organisation.  Understanding the customers drivers and priorities is critical to success.

My passion for data protection privacy is linked closely to my passion for people. I firmly believe that data protection and privacy is not and should not be just a work thing but a life thing. Data protection and privacy are all about looking after people - just like you and me.

Team Satchel

I was offered vocational work experience on ITV's Good Morning Britain Show. Mainly revolving around sound, I helped out in the gallery with audio mastering and was also given the opportunity to work with presenters in technical audio support. It allowed me to grip the reigns of live television and the pressures that come with it.

Shadow

Shadowed Nick Conrad and the producers behind the show for 3 weeks. This involved helping with the live desk, attaining information through indepth research.

Intern

InfoSec | TPRM | VRM

As a Senior Account Director at C2Risk, I help organisations get proactive about one of today’s biggest blind spots: third-party and supply chain risk.

I cut my teeth in cybersecurity sales development and grew into a consultative sales leader, blending sharp industry insight with a real passion for solving complex, high-stakes problems. Now, I work closely with mid-market and enterprise clients to build smarter, more resilient risk strategies, focused on outcomes, not just admiring the problem!

My sweet spots: Strategic and long term relationships, value-led solutions, and helping businesses stay ahead of evolving demands around compliance, privacy, and operational resilience.

At C2Risk, our mission is simple: don’t just assess risk; fix it. That’s the energy I bring to every engagement, whether I’m supporting heavily regulated industries or helping teams modernise outdated, manual vendor risk processes.
