Profile
I lead a team of eight investigators in Deutsche Bank's Anti-Financial Crime function. We handle AML and fraud for private banking and wealth management clients, around 400 cases and 30 to 40 SAR filings a month. Most of my work is the second-line review. I check that our conclusions and filings will stand up when a regulator looks at them.
I have worked across BSA/AML, sanctions and OFAC screening, correspondent banking, and fraud in wires, ACH, and checks. For six months I was the interim senior analyst on the team and worked directly with U.S. federal regulators on reporting and investigations. Right now I am finishing a Master of Legal Studies in financial and tax compliance at the University of Florida.
