A passionate and reliable independent contractor keen on promoting good governance culture through professionalism and streamlining Information Technology (IT) processes, IT risks, Internal controls and infrastructure, with more than 20 years’ experience assisting various levels of management. Prior to joining TransUnion Africa, an Executive role at the Auditor-General of South Africa (AGSA) was held to oversee the IT Assurance portfolio. Independent assurance on government’s use of technology across the entire country at all levels including National, Provincial and Local Government, was provided. By serving on various key governance structures (e.g. ICT Steering Committee and Tender Committee) within the AGSA, representing them on the International Organisation of Supreme Audit Institutions (INTOSAI) Working Group on Information Technology Audit (WGITA), an instrumental role was fulfilled in shaping international technology assurance trends and approaches. Unique perspective on the IT challenges and opportunities facing government comes from significant, practical, real on the ground experience in working with public sector organisations. Armed with this knowledge and a passion for technology, leaders across government were assisted to realise the vision of using information (big data) to make better management decisions and address risks. The main objective is to make a difference by influencing positive change in the way that Leaders manage their IT environments, with the ultimate objective to improve service delivery and IT audit outcomes. In addition, working successfully and effectively in teams and driving integration will take any organisation to the next level.
