With over 17 years in Financial Services, I've excelled in roles spanning a principal money transmitter, merchant acquirer, and payment processor. My expertise lies in Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) / Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Sanctions compliance, Card Network and ACH regulatory adherence, risk management, auditing, and partner collaboration. Known for critical thinking, attention to detail, and strong work ethic, I've built a reputation for effective teamwork.
Beginning in 2005, I joined the Compliance Department of a principal money transmitter, overseeing BSA/AML and OFAC risk assessments. As an Anti-Money Laundering Specialist, I handled transaction monitoring, SAR filings, and agent oversight across 13 states and 120 authorized delegates, catering to the Brazilian and Hispanic remittance market.
In 2010, I became a Senior BSA/AML Risk Analyst at Worldpay US Inc., later merged into Fidelity National Information Services (FIS). Responsibilities included customer due diligence, risk assessments, compliance reviews, and submitting Unusual Activity Reports. Over a near 12-year tenure, I played a pivotal role in risk mitigation and compliance within FIS's Payments Network and Partnerships division, bridging connections between FIS, Acquiring Sponsor Banks, and Partner Banks across global markets.
Joining MSB Compliance, Inc. in 2022, I now contribute as a BSA/AML Compliance Specialist. My role entails regulatory reviews for various Money Services Businesses, supporting compliance efforts, and providing expertise in risk assessment, program development, training, and consultancy services.
I am a member of the ACAMS and currently in pursuing certification as a Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS).
My primary interest lies in the Communications role, either as a Director or Co-Director. I understand the critical importance of providing clear, effective, and ongoing communication to all members. The responsibilities, such as email management, social media, marketing, and event communication, with my skills and are areas I genuinely enjoy engaging in. I am very excited about the opportunity to contribute to the chapter's growth and success!
