She has assisted companies in various industries including financial services, healthcare, retail, utilities, transport & telecommunications in shaping their security programs and strategies, working with stakeholders to find and shape suitable solutions to their problems.

When she is not poring over her computer, Amelia can be found nestled in a corner with a hot cup of tea, a sumptuous plate of pastries, face buried in a book; or on a dance floor at one of the various studios in the city because life without music is inconceivable.
