  • About me

    I lead enterprise HSE governance for high risk operations where failure has real consequences, not PowerPoint consequences. With 15+ years across oil & gas, energy, infrastructure and industrial operations in the Middle East and India, I work at the intersection of risk, regulation and leadership accountability. My focus is simple: define risk appetite clearly, enforce governance consistently and hold leaders accountable for outcomes. I’ve built and reset corporate HSE systems for owner operators and EPC environments, turning fragmented compliance driven functions into board-visible, KPI led safety governance that withstands regulatory scrutiny and operational pressure. My experience spans enterprise policy ownership, contractor governance, risk acceptance decisions, crisis and emergency management and executive level incident investigations. I regularly interface with CXOs, regulators and project leadership on high risk activities and complex operational challenges. Currently operating in a senior enterprise governance role within Saudi Arabia, with mobility across GCC and international markets. I engage selectively on Director, Head of HSE and VP level roles where safety is treated as a leadership system, not a checklist.
