Professional Experience:

My twenty-year professional track record in management consulting, strategy development and enterprise risk management attests to my ability to drive strategic and operational results while managing risk. Most recently, as a senior executive leader responsible for running the operating office for the global Chief Risk Officer (CRO) at Manulife, I served as a trusted advisor to the CRO, led the risk organization’s global operations (comprising of 500 FTE and $135M CAD budget) and facilitated strategic plan setting and execution. Concurrently, I delivered on various risk and governance accountabilities through programs in culture risk, geopolitical analysis, ESG, policy management, data analysis and reporting. I have been recognized as an adaptive and pragmatic leader able to effectively influence at executive management and Board levels; able to impact outcomes as a catalyst of change; and proven at inclusive and values-based leadership with an emphasis on building diverse teams in an international environment. I am also adept at building and maintaining positive and trusted relationships with stakeholders at all levels. Finally, I have extensive experience in representing the organization with external stakeholders, including regulators, auditors, government agencies, rating agencies, industry advocacy groups, and third-party providers.
