What I'm looking for

I’m open to remote, hybrid or on-site roles in New York City and Long Island.

At HSBC, I automated SwapOne workflows that reduced processing time by 40% and led implementation of an allocation system that improved efficiency by 60%. I also supported equity-derivative lifecycle events, reconciliations and clearing setups.

At JPMorgan Chase & Co., I improved processes that reduced daily nostro breaks from 300 billion to 4–12 million. My work included trade support for equity derivatives, reconciliation and resolving real-time trading-system connectivity issues.

I’ve also worked in proprietary trading at T3 Trading Group LLC and in derivatives settlements and trade support at Barclays Capital, CIBC, Credit Suisse and Deutsche Bank. I’m open to remote, hybrid or on-site roles in New York City and Long Island.
