What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values compliance expertise and offers growth opportunities.

I am an International Compliance Officer with a strong background in Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Know Your Customer (KYC), and Customer Due Diligence (CDD). My experience spans across various roles in compliance and risk management, where I have honed my analytical skills and project management abilities. Currently, I work at Aegon, where I focus on financial crimes and compliance strategies.

In addition to my professional work, I am the founder and board member of Stichting FeniksPolitik, an organization dedicated to promoting peace and justice. My academic background includes a Master of Law from Leiden University, specializing in Advanced Public International Law, and a Master's in International Relations from TOBB University. I have also received several awards, including the Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS) certification and the Extra Mile Award from Amazon.
