With 20+ years in banking, inclusive of AML, and recent experience in hedge fund compliance at Northern Trust, I’m exploring roles where I can drive regulatory excellence and investor confidence. I also have volunteer as a tax preparer for Ladder Up organization and know basics about tax preparation. I am also willing to take required training and pass any exams. 

In my recent role at Northern Trust, I handled investor onboarding and KYC reviews, including sanctions/PEP/adverse media screening and clear case notes for audit readiness. also improved service performance by responding faster to client requests and reduced errors by adding a stronger quality check process. 

Earlier at IDBI Bank, I managed KYC and AML compliance for corporate clients and led a 27-member team handling onboarding, periodic reviews, and document validation. I also trained the team on AML policies, KYC documentation standards, and audit-ready case notes to improve review quality and reduce compliance gaps. In addition, I supported transaction monitoring, reviewed unusual activity patterns, and helped escalate cases for Suspicious Transaction Reporting (STR) as required. I strengthened internal quality checks and ensured proper CDD/EDD and risk-based reviews, helping the team stay compliant with regulatory requirements and audit expectations.

I have earned Bachelors Degree with Major in Computer Science and Minor in Business and Maths at University of Northern Iowa, Cedar Falls, Iowa in 1991.
