As the Director of Solutions Engineering for Central and Eastern Europe at Okta, I lead and build a team of talented professionals who help organizations to securely connect the right people to the right technologies at the right time. With over 20 years of experience in IT management and cybersecurity, I have a broad and deep technology background and a passion for innovation and customer success.
My core competencies include information security, identity and access management (IAM), security information and event management (SIEM), and enterprise account management. I am also an Okta Certified Professional and Administrator, demonstrating my proficiency and credibility in the leading independent provider of identity for the enterprise. My mission is to make IT a better place by enabling organizations to use the best technologies for their business, while protecting the identities of their workforces and customers.

I'm an experienced IT manager with a natural dislike of inefficiencies and friction, always keen to improve, solve problems and add grease to stuck gears. Never afraid to learn something new and improve/update outdated technology/processes and structures while keeping time and budget on top of my mind.
As well I've proven to be a good leader with a good mix of experience, technical expertise, social skills and humour, which helps me to build strong teams that walk the extra mile.

With over 4 years of work experience in IT operations and support, I am passionate about enhancing information security, employee experience, and compliance for digital logistics companies. As an IT Technician II at sennder, I leverage my skills and knowledge in cyber security, data privacy, project management, and Google Workspace to implement innovative solutions and streamline IT processes. I am motivated by sennder's mission to transform the road freight industry with technology and sustainability, and I enjoy working in a diverse and collaborative team that values learning and growth.
In my current role, I am responsible for implementing an IAM solution to protect the company's assets and identity using the latest phishing-resistant methods. I am also working on NIST CSF to enhance the security of IT operations by streamlining identity governance, entitlement management, and security policy. Previously, I successfully led an MDM project to improve the support and compliance for over 1000 devices across Europe, and automated the onboarding and offboarding process for employees. I utilize my technical skills in Mobile Device Management, Microsoft Intune, and Technical Support to deliver effective and efficient IT services.
