Have you had any experiences during your legal career that stand out as particularly unique or interesting?

The most unique work that I can publicly cite was the navigation of the regulatory and legal landscapes to ensure successful cross-listing of the company’s shares across three Securities Exchanges within a period of ten months.

How are you bringing the legal department closer to your business colleagues?

By projecting the legal division as a driver of the legal dimension to overall business strategy and as an enabler and catalyst to the operations of the business.
