Financial crime specialist with expertise in AML and fraud investigation.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated financial crime specialist with four years of experience as an AML/Fraud Investigator. My focus has been on transaction monitoring and suspicious activity detection within high-risk environments for global financial institutions. I pride myself on my ability to analyze complex data and identify risk patterns that support compliance efforts and case development.
Currently, I work as a Contract Fraud Investigator at PwC, where I conduct thorough investigations into suspected fraudulent activities. My role involves collaborating with cross-functional teams to prepare detailed case documentation and client reports, ensuring that all findings are communicated effectively. Previously, I served as an Associate Analyst II at AML RightSource, where I honed my skills in investigating potential financial threats and directly engaging with financial institutions to enhance client relationships.
