As a Business Information Security Lead at bp, I bridge the gap between cybersecurity and business strategy — ensuring that security is not just a safeguard, but a business enabler. I work closely with senior leaders to anticipate and manage emerging cyber risks, aligning security initiatives with the organization’s evolving goals and operations.With over 20 years of experience in the IT industry—specializing in information security and risk management I bring a proven track record of protecting critical assets and driving security transformation across complex, global environments. I’ve operated at the intersection of technology and leadership, often covering the responsibilities of a CISO to ensure that security vision and business objectives are fully aligned.I’m passionate about embedding a strong security culture, raising executive awareness, and ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets. My approach is pragmatic, people-focused, and grounded in the belief that cybersecurity is everyone’s responsibility and a key driver of business resilience.
