Who Rie works with (and not).
I've had the pleasure of working with Rie in her role as Privacy Officer at Fathom Analytics. When we're not trying to determine in-transit data flows or solve the complexities of international data transfers, we often find ourselves discussing obscure and rarely explored aspects of privacy and technology (and some gaming). I thought I was a big privacy nerd—until I met Rie. Rie is extremely knowledgeable about the requirements of privacy law, to a level beyond many attorneys and "GDPR experts". Combined with her genuine passion for the field, her outstanding project management abilities, and her desire to package GDPR into a digestible matter, Rie gets my highest recommendation.
