United States
Message

At Deloitte Consulting, I directed annual reviews of 300+ control assessments across Retail Banking and Corporate & Investment Banking, contributing to a 20% improvement in control effectiveness ratings.

I partnered with 1st and 2nd lines of defense to assess operational risk, control performance, and risk appetite across five business groups. This work resulted in a 25% reduction in recurring control deficiencies.

I led and mentored a team of 15+ control assessors, and engineered 200+ test scripts and standardized templates to streamline testing workflows. I also mapped and documented 50+ end-to-end control processes using Signavio.

As a Summer Finance Intern at ING Wholesale Banking, I evaluated financial performance and sustainability data across a $25M green asset portfolio to help senior analysts identify potential ESG risks. I hold a Master of Science in Finance from Southern Methodist University, Cox School of Business.
