- Comment: Not clear that this person meets WP:GNG or WP:BIO. Tone is promotional, reading more like a CV or Linkedin profile than a biography of a living person. Most critically, the referencing is poor - numbered footnotes should be inserted into relevant points in the body copy, not simply listed at the end of the article, and bare URLs are not helpful.
