EXPERTISE

Strategic direction.
Technical depth.
Capability that lasts.

Complex financial-crime challenges rarely need advice alone. They need strategy, technical precision and the confidence to carry reform forward. Working as a strategist, technician, and teacher, Erin helps institutions make sound decisions, build systems that work, and develop the capability to sustain them.

How I work

STRATEGIST

Seeing the whole system. Setting direction, navigating political and institutional realities, and turning competing priorities into a coherent path forward.

TECHNICIAN

Working in the detail. Testing laws, evidence, institutions, and operational practice against international standards, and finding what will make them stronger.

TEACHER

Making complexity usable. Building shared understanding, practical confidence and institutional capability so progress continues long after the engagement ends..

Areas of expertise

Each engagement blends the right combination of strategic advice, technical analysis, and capability building. These areas can be addressed individually or connected into a wider programme of reform.

The right engagement begins with the right questions.

Most work begins with a confidential conversation to understand the context, clarify the challenge and define the right shape of support.
