What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and a collaborative environment.

I am an Associate Analyst I at AML RightSource, where I evaluate and monitor transactional activity to identify potential suspicious activity. My role involves verifying client identities and assessing their relationships with financial institutions for Know Your Customer (KYC) purposes. I excel at interpreting and implementing client-operating policies related to financial data, identifying data anomalies, and writing clear, concise reports summarizing my findings and recommendations.

With a Bachelor's in Criminal Justice from Southeastern Louisiana University, I have developed strong analytical and communication skills. I am adept at using basic Excel functions and various technology applications to conduct thorough analyses. My experience also includes leadership roles in customer service environments, where I honed my cash handling and organizational skills. I am committed to ensuring compliance with federal and state laws, regulations, and company policies related to Anti-Money Laundering.
