What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can combine client advisory with strong AML/KYC and fraud prevention, while continuing to build secure, compliant web experiences through frontend development.

I’m a Scotiabank Financial Advisor and Mutual Funds Representative, trusted with a book of 200+ clients and delivering custom financial advice across investments, lending, and account products. I’m careful by nature, and I’ve earned positive client feedback while staying tightly aligned with regulatory expectations.

I also strengthen risk outcomes through AML/KYC and anti-fraud monitoring—tracking phishing and suspicious transaction patterns, and following compliance guidelines before processing high-risk requests. Alongside my client work, I develop secure web pages using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React, collaborating with teams using Git to deliver audit-ready, risk-aware code.
