What I'm looking for

I’m looking to expand my impact in credit risk and governance, owning underwriting and counterparty decisions in fast-paced, high-stakes environments while strengthening controls, compliance monitoring, and service continuity with senior stakeholders.

I’m a results-driven credit risk professional with 11+ years of experience across wholesale credit risk, investment banking analytics, and compliance. At J.P. Morgan, I manage real-time intraday payment credit decisions, ensuring approvals/rejections/escalations align with firm risk appetite and governance controls.

I’ve built deep expertise in credit underwriting and analysis, including credit memos, counterparty due diligence, internal risk ratings, and credit structuring for loans, derivatives, and traded products. I also strengthen risk governance through policy/procedure development, compliance monitoring, and investment guideline surveillance, while leading crisis management and coordinating with senior credit officers and business partners to maintain service continuity under stressed conditions.
