Most recently I have been leading the risk and opportunities assessment for Generative AI across UBS. Prior to this, I spent 5 years focusing on how to make data ethics practical and widespread – specifically, designing policy, processes, reusable tooling, and control frameworks to deliver data ethics by design and at scale. This covers fairness, explainability, ethical purpose and ethical data use among other topics. I am deeply passionate about data ethics and responsible AI and want to bring awareness and understanding to audiences around the world.
