What I'm looking for

I’m looking to support attorneys in a fast-paced legal team, handling legal research, drafting, and case preparation while strengthening AML/CFT and regulatory compliance. I want work where accuracy, reliable documentation, and clear communication drive outcomes.

I’m a detail-oriented lawyer and arbitrator who supports legal teams with hands-on legal research, legal writing, and case preparation, including organizing evidence and reviewing witness statements. I bring a strong litigation support mindset, plus a regulatory compliance foundation, with experience managing risk and AML/CFT compliance for a firm serving 800+ clients across multiple branches.

In my recent Risk Management Officer role, I assessed operational, financial, regulatory, and reputational risks, ensured compliance with NAICOM directives, and supported audits while advising leadership on AML/CFT strategies. I’m energized by fast-paced legal environments, committed to precise and reliable documentation, and focused on keeping attorneys operationally effective under competing deadlines.
