Meet the Team

Behind Fineod is a small but powerful team of two – practical, creative, and focused on getting things done.

We work closely with organizations, communities, and partners to deliver humanitarian demining and specialized training where it’s needed most. Being a small team means we can adapt quickly, make decisions fast, and keep our focus on what really matters – making people and places safer.

We’re proof that even a duo, with the right skills and strong partnerships, can make a real impact.

"Bridging security and leadership with precision and integrity"

Aria keeps Fineod running smoothly day to day, balancing administration, HR, logistics, and operational planning. With a background in logistics and security training – including qualifications as a security steward trainer from the Police University College – she brings practical insight into security operations and risk assessment.

​

Her hands-on approach has led to creative solutions, such as designing and building a C‑IED test room and even crafting specialized training tools, like a body cavity bomb (BCB) training doll. Recently, Aria also gained valuable experience delivering EOD training in Ukraine, adding international perspective to her work.

​

At Fineod, Aria’s strength lies in turning ideas into action and supporting every aspect of the mission to create safer communities.
