What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead risk, audit, operations, or transformation initiatives where I can improve trade processing, strengthen controls, optimize risk management, and develop high-performing cross-cultural teams.

I've led Internal Audit Operations at Morgan Stanley, executing risk-based audits across collateral management, client money, KYC, AML, settlement instructions, and end-to-end trade flows. I partner with business, risk, compliance, and senior leadership to identify control weaknesses, strengthen governance, and deliver corrective actions.

Previously, I managed trade-review and BCBS 239 risk-system migration programs at CRISIL, including a 25-member UK and India delivery team and automated quality controls using Tableau and Python. My experience also spans FX operations at J.P. Morgan, liquidity operations and portfolio management at Goldman Sachs, and fixed-income market data at Thomson Reuters.
