What I'm looking for

I am seeking a mid-level AML/financial-crimes role where I can apply investigative skills, data tools, and compliance knowledge to detect fraud, improve monitoring workflows, and contribute to a high-integrity, collaborative team.

I am a Financial Crimes Analyst with hands-on experience investigating fraud, conducting high-risk client reviews, and filing Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) across banks and fintech clients. I combine AML/KYC subject-matter knowledge with strong analytical skills to identify red flags and ensure regulatory compliance.

Technically proficient in Python, SQL, R, Scala, Pandas, NumPy, Power BI, Tableau, Verafin, Chainalysis, BigQuery, AWS, and other monitoring and big-data tools, I perform in-depth transaction analysis and due diligence to resolve complex cases while maintaining high quality-control standards.

I consistently exceed production targets in fast-paced, high-volume environments, streamline investigative workflows, and improve team efficiency through clear documentation, stakeholder communication, and pragmatic process improvements.
