I execute FX and OTC trades while automating treasury workflows and advancing tokenized products.

At Security Bank Corporation, I secured competitive pricing for structured products and executed more than 50 foreign exchange derivatives trades daily, with order volumes exceeding PHP10 million.

Previously at Philippine Digital Asset Exchange (PDAX), I traded foreign exchange deals up to $2 million and OTC trades, realizing an average profit of 1% per trade. I also built a Google Sheets OTC volume-reporting dashboard that improved data-extraction efficiency by 80%.

I pioneered tokenized bonds and bills development by creating the trading manual and collaborating across teams. I automated deal confirmations, Excel-based tasks, and reconciliation processes while training colleagues on procedures.

My earlier banking experience at Asia United Bank included liquidity monitoring, credit-facility renewals totaling over $50 million, financial analysis, modeling, deal materials, and Credit Committee presentations.
