  • Set the vision of “Making every guest intuitively Trust Target” (with security, compliance and privacy) and achieved it by forming and coaching a diverse team of 6 (4 SPMs+2 PMs) team members with a lot of care and heart

  • Happy to have reduced the litigation risk by 43 million$ through timely launch of compliance initiatives by rallying all teams to prioritize implementing even the last minute ones like Health law in 2024 over their set roadmaps
  • Identified system gaps which had made it unable to render complete tracking of deletion requests
  • This posed a lawsuit risk of 550 million$
