What I'm looking for

I'm looking to own and improve AML/CTF governance in a regulated crypto, fintech, or financial-services business, partnering with Product and Engineering to build practical, audit-ready controls.

At Nilos Canada, I built a comprehensive AML/CTF compliance program for a FINTRAC-registered cross-border stablecoin remittance business within 90 days.

I own CDD/EDD, counterparty due diligence, sanctions, PEP and adverse media screening, transaction monitoring, suspicious activity investigations, and Suspicious Transaction Report preparation. I use Chainalysis, TRM Labs, and ComplyAdvantage to support blockchain analytics and financial-crime controls.

Previously at CIBC, I investigated fraud and AML alerts while supporting transaction monitoring and sanctions screening in a regulated banking environment.

Over a decade with Morgan Consultancy Services, I advised more than 300 Canadian fintech and regulated financial institution clients on AML/CFT program design, policy authorship, audit readiness, control effectiveness, and compliance training. I partner with Product and Engineering teams to translate regulatory requirements into practical governance tools and workflows.
