What I'm looking for

I’m seeking opportunities in Operational Risk, Issue Management, Business Execution, Governance, and Risk & Controls consulting, where cross-functional collaboration, structured execution, and policy alignment are essential.

At Wells Fargo, I led the full lifecycle of operational risk issues, from identification and corrective action planning through validation and sustainability checks. I partnered with senior managers, SMEs, Change Management, Operational Risk, and Compliance to align remediation with policy and regulatory expectations.

Earlier at Wells Fargo, I supported operational risk, compliance, and business execution initiatives across Home Lending, conducting assessments and recommending ways to strengthen controls. I’m currently seeking opportunities in Operational Risk, Issue Management, Business Execution, Governance, and Risk & Controls consulting.
