About me

The person behind the credentials

I'm a dynamic IT audit and cybersecurity professional with a proven track record at prominent financial institutions and one of the country's largest technology and media companies. My work bridges the gap between complex technical systems and the people responsible for governing them.

Fluent in English and Greek, I bring strong interpersonal skills, team leadership, and composure under pressure to every engagement. I believe that great auditing isn't just about finding gaps — it's about building trust and driving meaningful, lasting change.
