Bio
Egoyibo Okoro
Sophyan is one of the strongest allies I have in our team. I have worked with him for six months now -- firstly, in his role as Data Protection Officer (Merchant Services - Belgium) and later in his role as Senior Data Protection Officer (Global). Sophyan's passion for Privacy and Data Protection shines through in all his work and interaction, and his vast knowledge of the payment industry is as impressive as it is an asset. A hard-worker and team-player, Sophyan gets along with everyone and never hesitates to take on a challenge and produce great work.
