Certified as a CIPP/E and CIPM, I also provide a specialist understanding of data regulations, (predominantly, EU GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA and Southern Africa regional laws). After starting my career at a prominent mid-sized South African law firm, where I progressed to Senior Associate, I transitioned into consulting to exercise my skills beyond mere traditional legal delivery services.
