What I'm looking for

I seek a challenging AML/compliance role where I can apply transaction monitoring, investigations, and risk mitigation skills, grow professionally, and contribute to a collaborative, compliance-focused team.

I am a detail-oriented AML and fraud analyst with experience in transaction monitoring, investigations, and regulatory compliance across major Canadian financial institutions.

At BMO I conduct in-depth transaction analysis, prepare suspicious activity reports, and collaborate with law enforcement and cross-functional teams to mitigate financial crime risk.

Previously at CIBC I reduced fraud exposure while maintaining customer experience, working with COINS, PRM, CRS, TSYS, ECIF, CRM and other fraud tools to meet performance and compliance targets.

I began my career supporting legal operations and later moved into retail management, demonstrating strong communication, team leadership, and risk assessment skills; I am currently pursuing CAMS certification to deepen my AML expertise.
