Profile

About

I’m a project and program leader with 18+ years of experience delivering cross-functional software and cybersecurity initiatives across the GCC/MENA and EU regions. My work sits at the intersection of client satisfaction, delivery governance, and business growth.

I operate best in high-stakes environments where expectations are high, timelines are real, and trust is earned through predictable execution and transparent communication.
