Stephen Fort
@stephenfort
I investigate financial crimes, improve fraud operations, and guide teams through complex decisions.
What I'm looking for
I've spent 10 years in financial services, including eight years resolving fraud claims, analyzing patterns, and protecting customer information. As a Financial Crimes Operations Analyst, I research and present strategic initiatives, lead monthly forums with senior leadership, and respond independently to high-level escalated complaints.
At Wells Fargo, I reviewed loan documentation, mitigated compliance risks, created training guides, and supported cross-training as a subject matter expert. I'm actively pursuing CompTIA Security+ certification and building cybersecurity knowledge through the University of Texas at Austin Post Graduate Cybersecurity Program.
