What I'm looking for

I seek a compliance role where I can apply AML/KYC expertise, strengthen controls, work within a collaborative team, and grow into broader regulatory responsibilities.

I am a result-driven compliance associate with experience in AML/CFT, KYC/EDD, and financial crime prevention, primarily operating in the UAE. I have conducted KYC/EDD verification and risk assessments for corporate clients, monitored high-volume transactions for suspicious activity, and implemented internal controls that strengthened adherence to UAE and international AML/CFT standards.

I hold an ICA/MOEc certification in AML/CFT (DNFBPs) and have collaborated with cross-functional teams to improve compliance frameworks and reporting. Additionally, I have experience in content marketing and digital strategy from freelance work, and I bring strong analytical, documentation, and operational efficiency skills to protect organizations from financial crime while enhancing compliance programs.
