AI governance should not be an end in itself. The objective is to help enterprises use AI to deliver business outcomes leaders can trust and stand behind.

As Chief AI Governance Officer at iTmethods, I set direction for our product and service strategy for governed AI. I work with customers, partners, and teams across product, engineering, and delivery to translate business objectives, risk, and regulatory requirements into practical controls, evidence, and operating models.
The market has no shortage of AI governance frameworks, security controls, guardrails, and development tooling. Each has a role, but none is the ultimate measure of success. What ultimately matters is whether leaders can answer five questions about AI-enabled work:

1. Was the action properly authorized?
2. Did the required safeguards operate as intended?
3. Was the intended business outcome achieved?
4. What material exceptions or residual risk remain?
5. Can the organization prove what happened?

My focus is helping enterprises put consequential AI-enabled work into operation with clear authority, appropriate safeguards, and evidence to help ensure the intended business outcomes are achieved.

A CPA, CA and CISA, my background spans Big Four advisory, operational leadership in regulated enterprises, internal audit and risk, and deep technology. I have advised boards and senior leaders, served as a Chief Audit Executive, carried operational accountability in complex environments, led the development and delivery of consequential technology systems, and built products, services, partnerships, and go-to-market strategies.

Most recently, at Ocient, I established and led the company’s Partnerships and Alliances program, working with technology partners, industry stakeholders, and strategic customer opportunities.

At KX, I built and scaled the IoT and Utilities business to 36% of corporate revenue.

At Ontario’s Independent Electricity System Operator, I served as Chief Audit Executive and led the Smart Metering Entity, which supported 70 utilities serving five million customers and processed more than 100 million transactions daily.

I welcome conversations with business, technology, AI, risk, audit, and security leaders working to turn AI investment into measurable business outcomes, with the safeguards, accountability, and evidence needed to stand behind the result.
