I’m a law and cybersecurity-focused compliance intern, blending OSINT investigations and strategy to map corporate risk.
What I'm looking for
I’m currently building deep investigations experience through my KROLL internship in “Investigations, Diligence & Compliance,” executing complex multi-jurisdictional AML investigations to trace offshore accounts, tax havens, and Ultimate Beneficial Ownership (UBO) structures. I leverage OSINT tradecraft and specialized databases to deliver high-stakes Integrity Due Diligence (IDD), corporate integrity assessments, cryptocurrency tracking, and financial forensic reviews.
Alongside investigations, I strengthen security and compliance expertise through internships including Accenture’s “Cybersecurity and Compliance Consultant” role—where I support risk management and business continuity, and work with cybersecurity control frameworks and regulations (ISO27001, ENS, NIST, and GRC legal control). I also support corporate security operations at LOEWE (physical security audits, intelligence reports, and security incident management) and bring leadership and international outreach through my work with JEF Europe, while continuously developing practical tech skills like Python and PowerBI.
