Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist with expertise in compliance.
What I'm looking for
I am a Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS) with deep experience in high-risk investigations, player risk assessment, and regulatory compliance across Canadian financial institutions and the iGaming sector. My expertise spans identifying complex typologies, interpreting regulatory obligations, and applying a data-driven, behaviour-focused approach to detecting suspicious activity.
Currently, I serve as an AML & Compliance Analyst at PointsBet Canada, where I support sportsbook and casino monitoring through enhanced player reviews, behavioural methodology profiling, and alignment with AGCO/iGO regulatory standards. I work closely with AML, Risk, and Operational leaders to evaluate transactional patterns, escalate potential concerns, and ensure our controls meet both provincial and federal expectations.
Previously, I held a Compliance & Digital Fluency Lead role at TD Bank, where I translated AML/ATF regulations into actionable frontline procedures, strengthened digital competencies across the enterprise, and was recognized with the 2023 Q4 Epic Award. My foundational experience as a Legal Analyst further sharpened my regulatory interpretation, documentation accuracy, and governance awareness.
I bring a hybrid background that bridges banking-grade financial crime controls with the unique risk environment of modern iGaming platforms, enabling me to support organizations in meeting evolving compliance standards with precision and integrity.
