What others say about working with us:

M. Le Tilly - Privacy Investigation at Google

Rebecca is both a highly-skilled privacy engineer and a reliable manager.  She consistently provided relevant pointers and asked critical questions based on her extensive knowledge of current and upcoming privacy regulations and trends. She's capable of understanding complex systems quickly and applies a privacy lens systematically.  Working with her has been a blast and an amazing learning experience!

A. Wyeth - Tech Lead at Google

 Rebecca's data protection knowledge and ability to think through what was best for the user were essential to the success of our Privacy Red Team exercises. She helped us to identify and mitigate potential privacy risks, and she provided valuable insights on how to communicate our findings to get the best impact. 


 I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a data protection expert.
