What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can lead AML/KYC and fraud investigations, strengthen controls through data analysis and governance, and partner cross-functionally to improve audit readiness and regulatory outcomes.

I’m a Fraud Risk & Compliance SME with 7+ years of experience across banking and fintech, focused on AML/KYC compliance, fraud investigations, and regulatory reporting. I lead Reg E dispute resolution and fraud risk investigations, using advanced data analysis and root cause analysis to implement controls and ensure audit readiness.

In my roles, I apply BSA, Patriot Act, and OFAC knowledge to clear fraud alerts and resolve sanctions issues. I’ve delivered high-quality SARs with zero regulatory exceptions, strengthened fraud detection through trend analytics and response workflows, and supported EDD/KYC onboarding for high-risk clients—partnering with Financial Crimes Compliance, Cyber Security, Legal, and Operations to make prevention measures comprehensive.
