What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, collaboration, and a commitment to compliance.

I am a seasoned professional with over 8 years of diverse experience in Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Transaction Monitoring, and Financial Crime Compliance. My career began in academia, where I developed strong instructional and interpersonal skills, laying a solid foundation for my transition into the financial services sector. At HSBC, I gained valuable exposure to Common Reporting Standards (CRS), KYC, and AML fundamentals, which further strengthened my analytical capabilities.

Currently, I work at Ernst & Young (EY) as an Advanced Analyst in Sanctions Screening, where I specialize in leveraging analytical tools to identify potential fraud and ensure compliance with regulatory standards. My experience includes collaborating with compliance and risk teams to address complex payment issues and efficiently handling high transaction volumes with accuracy. I am committed to contributing to a strong culture of integrity and compliance in every role I undertake.
