What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Fraud Prevention Analyst with extensive experience in analyzing fraud patterns and implementing effective prevention strategies. My journey in this field began at Conduent, where I honed my skills in analyzing online purchases and achieving a remarkable 98% accuracy in identifying suspicious transactions. This foundational experience paved the way for my subsequent roles, where I consistently delivered impactful results.
At PayPal, I designed local fraud prevention rules that significantly reduced chargebacks and losses, saving the company an estimated $1 million over two years. My ability to automate mundane tasks using SQL and Python has streamlined processes and improved efficiency in fraud detection. I take pride in my leadership skills, having trained and led teams to achieve substantial reductions in fraud rates, demonstrating my commitment to excellence in fraud prevention.
