I investigate financial crime risks through AML, KYC, EDD, transaction monitoring, and on-chain due diligence.

I've investigated financial crime risk at Uphold and Canaria Consulting, supporting customer onboarding, transaction monitoring, and due diligence across fintech and payment structures.

At Canaria Consulting, I conduct KYC/KYB, CDD, EDD, RFI, SOW/SOF, adverse media, and third-party risk reviews. I also assess wallet addresses across liquidity pools, DeFi protocols, and NFT marketplaces, and reduced case backlog by 25% through improved watchlist screening and alert-monitoring rules.

At Uphold, I investigated transaction alerts involving structuring, elder financial abuse, and unusual money-in/money-out activity. I contributed to 20+ CTR/SAR filings, maintained 95% accuracy against SLA requirements, and helped reduce case-resolution time by 40% through cross-functional escalations.

I'm a Certified Anti-Money Laundering Professional with experience using Chainalysis, Unit21, TRM, Veriff, Sift, World-Check One, and ComplyAdvantage. I work in English and Spanish and focus on detecting and mitigating high-risk customer and transaction exposure.
