What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my AML expertise while fostering a culture of compliance and innovation.

As a dedicated Risk & Compliance Specialist with over 5 years of experience, I have honed my skills in Anti-Money Laundering (AML), fraud prevention, and regulatory compliance. My expertise lies in transaction monitoring, risk assessment, and financial crime investigation, where I have successfully implemented strategies to mitigate financial threats. I am proficient in using SQL, Power BI, and Excel to enhance risk analytics, ensuring that organizations can effectively detect and prevent fraudulent activities.

In my role as an AML Risk Analyst II at Blackhawk Network, I led compliance and fraud detection strategies that significantly reduced financial crime exposure. I developed automated risk monitoring dashboards that improved screening efficiency and conducted thorough transaction monitoring, identifying suspicious activities worth millions. My commitment to fostering a strong compliance culture is evident through my training initiatives for junior analysts, empowering teams to uphold regulatory standards.
