International Legal Lawyer | Risk & Regulatory Compliance | Sustainable Finance| Emerging Markets| A.I Governance & Competition Law

About Me

Law has always been my foundation. I began my career in human rights law, working on policy research, governance and project management. Over time, I realized that many of the challenges I was addressing included access to financial inclusion, regulatory barriers, and economic disparities were deeply tied to trade policies, investment strategies, and financial governance. This realization led me to pivot into sustainable finance, carbon border taxes, SMEs financing, and trade law, focusing on how regulatory compliance, financial risk, and investment strategy shape capital markets, and sustainability policies in emerging markets.
The connection between human rights and finance is often overlooked, but I am a firm believer that economic systems determine access to resources, and opportunities. My work now focuses on bridging law, finance, and business strategy to ensure that financial policies are not only compliant and profitable but also sustainable and equitable which has been a key driver of my transition. 

I specialize in:
✔️ Capital Markets & Investment Strategy – Understanding financial instruments, capital flows and risk exposure in emerging markets.
✔️ Regulatory Compliance & Legal Advisory – Structuring cross-border agreements, contracts and conducting business due-dillgence. 
✔️ Market Intelligence – Navigating trade finance, supply chains, and development policies.

But beyond research and legal advisory, I am also a visual storyteller. My passion for photography allows me to capture the human side of development, while my technical skills in Figma, Adobe InDesign, and Photoshop brings clarity to any technical reports. 
My portfolio reflects a collection to data research, legal and policy advisory where law meets sustainable finance, and where strategy meets impact

Debt vs. Climate: Are GSSS Bonds the Key to Financing Emerging Markets?

Climate adaptation is expensive! For many emerging markets, the price tag comes with an undesirable side effect: debt. Enter green bonds, a financial tool marketed as a win-win for climate resilience and economic development. As global capital markets are evolving, sustainability is central to business strategies rather than an afterthought. Emerging markets alone issued $135 billion in green bonds in 2023- a 34% increase from the previous year and projections suggest this could rise to 156 billion by 2025 in green, social, sustainability, and sustainability-linked (GSSS) bonds.

Nourishing innovations: Rethinking food security for a hungry planet

From Nigeria’s bustling markets to Kenya’s drought-stricken fields and the unpredictable El Niño effects in South America to the conflict-ridden landscapes of Afghanistan and Somalia, the global food system is showing signs of strain. In Asia-Pacific, food imports amount to nearly $2 trillion annually. The region also faces a significant challenge as the cost of essential commodities such as rice, wheat, and oil rises, disproportionately impacting impoverished people.

Europe’s ESG Reset: What Companies Need to Know as Sustainability Rules Shift

The Deregulatory Turn when the European Commission unveiled its Omnibus Simplification Package earlier this year, it framed the move as a necessary recalibration. The message was simple: Europe’s sustainability goals remain intact, but the pathway to achieving them needs to be more business-friendly. The omnibus proposal bundles together several amendments that would lighten regulatory burdens in key areas tied to the Green Deal. It touches on the corporate sustainability reporting rules, the sup...
