What I'm looking for

I seek a compliance or data-focused role where I apply KYC, AML and analytical skills, contribute to accurate reporting, and grow in BI and risk domains.

I am a compliance-driven KYC validations specialist and data analyst with hands-on experience across financial services, education ICT and agricultural administration.

At nCino I validated customer-submitted documents, performed enhanced due diligence, and maintained FICA/AML-aligned risk assessments, validating ~150 documents daily at 99% accuracy.

My background includes data onboarding, CRM work, dashboard building and pipeline optimization that increased lead conversions by 15%, plus experience with PowerBI, Power Query, DAX and SQL.

I am currently studying a BSc in Mathematics and Information Systems and hold certifications including Google Data Analytics and Google Ads, which strengthen my analytical and reporting capabilities.
