What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my analytical skills in financial crime prevention while contributing to a team focused on compliance and risk management.

I am a dedicated Financial Crimes Analyst with a strong background in investigating suspicious activities within the cryptocurrency sector. Currently, I work at Crypto.com, where I conduct detailed blockchain investigations, averaging three case reviews daily while maintaining an exceptional case return rate of only 2%. My commitment to identifying and reporting financial crimes, including money laundering and terrorist financing, has significantly contributed to the organization's risk mitigation efforts.

Previously, I served as a Cryptocurrency AML Investigator II at Guidehouse, where I utilized advanced blockchain analysis techniques to investigate escalated transaction alerts. My experience also includes a role as a Fraud Analyst at Bank of America, where I achieved high accuracy in fraud incident analysis and received multiple client satisfaction awards. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and a Master's in Data Science, which further enhances my analytical capabilities in the financial crime domain.
