What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for growth in compliance and risk management, within a dynamic and supportive company culture.

I am an experienced AML, KYC, and Compliance professional with a proven track record in global financial institutions and regulatory environments. My expertise lies in risk assessments, policy frameworks, and ensuring regulatory compliance across diverse financial platforms, including traditional banking and cryptocurrency. I have developed a robust skill set, reinforced by certifications in AML, KYC, CDD, iGaming, Fraud Investigation, and ISMS 27001, which enables me to strategically solve problems and mitigate risks.

Currently, I serve as an AML Compliance Executive at ADS Management Tax Consultancy LLC, where I create AML framework policies for multiple clients across the UAE. My role involves conducting client meetings and training sessions for onboarding and policy framework creation, managing AML risk assessments, and preparing detailed reports for senior management. Previously, I worked with Guidehouse in India, ensuring compliance with crypto AML policies and performing KYC checks, as well as with Fragomen, where I handled end-to-end KYC onboarding for U.S. clients.
