What I'm looking for

I seek a role in payments or treasury operations focused on governance, risk mitigation, and process improvement within a collaborative, high-integrity team.

I am a senior payments governance professional with extensive experience managing regional teams and partnering with business lines to deliver compliant payment solutions and robust controls. At Goldman Sachs I led initiatives including RCSA implementation, new-hire training, and business migrations that improved operational efficiency and stakeholder trust across 45+ business lines.

I have a strong background in payments operations, wire and settlement instruction validation (SWIFT and Fedwire), fraud prevention, and client relationship management developed through roles at Goldman Sachs and Brown Brothers Harriman. I focus on strategic execution, risk mitigation, and continuous process improvement to ensure accurate, timely, and secure payment processing.
