What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can leverage crypto and KYC/AML expertise to reduce financial crime, improve fraud detection, collaborate cross-functionally, and drive measurable risk reductions.

I am an experienced Fraud Analyst with deep expertise in cryptocurrency, KYC/AML compliance, and financial crime prevention. I have conducted over 25,000 fraud investigations, led risk assessment initiatives, and implemented process improvements that reduced chargebacks and improved case resolution times.

I excel at using tools such as Sardine, Sift, ArkOwl, and Chainalysis to detect organized fraud and scams, and I collaborate effectively with compliance, legal, and product teams to enhance fraud detection models and prevention frameworks. I am fluent in English and Spanish, customer-focused, and committed to protecting clients and minimizing financial losses.
