Regulatory Compliance & Legal Acumen

Having worked extensively in the healthcare and health technology sectors, I have a deep understanding of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and its implications for data privacy and security. At Hippo Education and Limb Lab, I led initiatives to ensure strict HIPAA compliance, implementing robust data protection measures, access controls, and regular audits. By prioritizing HIPAA compliance from the outset and working closely with legal and IT teams, I have consistently delivered solutions that safeguard sensitive patient information while enabling seamless delivery of care.

With the increasing importance of data privacy in the digital age, I have made it a priority to stay up-to-date with the latest developments in global privacy regulations, particularly the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). At League, I spearheaded the company's GDPR compliance efforts, conducting comprehensive data mapping exercises, updating privacy policies, and implementing strict data handling protocols. By proactively engaging with legal and compliance teams and leveraging AI-powered tools to identify potential risks, I have ensured that data privacy remains a core consideration throughout the product development lifecycle.

As a passionate advocate for inclusive design, I have a strong understanding of accessibility standards such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). At Mandarin Oriental, I led the redesign of the company's website, ensuring full compliance with WCAG 2.1 AA standards. By collaborating closely with accessibility experts and leveraging automated testing tools, I have consistently delivered digital experiences that are accessible to users with a wide range of abilities.

Throughout my career, I have been involved in numerous contract negotiations, from vendor agreements and partnership deals to customer contracts and service level agreements (SLAs). At Jitjatjo, I played a key role in negotiating master service agreements with major enterprise clients, collaborating with legal and finance teams to ensure favorable terms and mitigate risks. By approaching contract negotiation with a win-win mindset and leveraging my understanding of legal and business considerations, I have consistently achieved outcomes that align with organizational objectives.

As AI becomes increasingly prevalent across industries, I have made it a priority to stay at the forefront of discussions around ethical AI practices. At Electriq Power and Mitsubishi Power, I led the development of AI-powered energy management solutions, working closely with legal and ethics teams to ensure transparent, accountable, and unbiased algorithms. By establishing clear guidelines for data use, model training, and human oversight, I have helped organizations harness the power of AI in a responsible and trustworthy manner.
