I am a leader in financial crimes compliance, having shaped enterprise-wide governance, risk, and compliance frameworks at top-tier firms. I partner with C-suite and board stakeholders to enhance fraud controls, operationalize AI-driven detection, and align programs with regulatory standards. My experience spans developing firm-wide risk strategies, chairing threat-monitoring working groups, negotiating vendor contracts, and driving digital transformations in fraud investigations. Core strengths include governance framework design, fraud risk management, regulatory alignment, data analytics, AI integration, and cross-functional leadership. I hold CFE and CFCS certifications, and an MBA from SMU’s Cox School of Business.
What am I doing – describe your current role and objectives:
In my current role as Senior Manager of Financial Crimes Compliance at EY, I lead the design and implementation of integrated governance, risk, and compliance frameworks across risk, data, technology, security, and fraud domains. My professional objectives are to enhance governance maturity, deliver C-suite and board-level advisory through capability gap assessments and strategic recommendations, drive the digital transformation of fraud investigations, and strengthen client resilience. My personal objective is to forge meaningful connections with fellow SMU alumni to grow and diversify my network.
Connections trying to make:
- Peers in Financial Services, Compliance, and Risk – Professionals at a similar career stage to share best practices, lessons learned, and potential collaboration opportunities.
- Senior Mentors and C-Suite Executives – Leaders who can offer strategic guidance, career advice, and sponsorship for your initiatives.
- Legal and Regulatory Advisors – Engage with in-house or external counsel, regulatory, and policy specialists to deepen my understanding of evolving rules.
