Currently, I work at Deloitte in Thessaloniki, where I lead KYC reconciliation efforts for multinational clients, ensuring compliance with AML/CFT regulations. My role involves conducting thorough risk assessments and managing suspicious transaction reporting activities, demonstrating my commitment to maintaining the highest standards of financial integrity.

Previously, I have held significant positions at Grant Thornton and KPMG, where I honed my skills in tax audits and financial statement audits according to IFRS and Greek GAAP.
