About

Financial crime doesn't wait — and neither do I. For over 3 years I've been on the front line of AML/CFT investigations across fintech and virtual asset environments, detecting money laundering, terrorist financing, and crypto-enabled fraud before it causes real harm. Today, at Revolut, I support the MLRO and Head of Compliance in running an enterprise-wide financial crime risk management programme aligned with FATF guidelines, FCA expectations, and PMLA obligations. Before Revolut, I spent 3+ years embedded within a VASP client at Wipro — conducting real-time blockchain investigations using on-chain analytics across fiat and crypto transactions, independently filing SARs and STRs with consistently high QA scores, and applying KYC/CDD/EDD frameworks including PEP screening, sanctions checks, and adverse media reviews. I ran structured root cause analysis on complex FinCrime cases and escalated high-risk matters within governance frameworks — earning 3x Top Team Awards and multiple Top Performer recognitions for SLA and quality excellence. What sets me apart: I sit at the intersection of traditional AML and crypto-native compliance. I understand both the regulatory frameworks (FATF, FCA, PMLA, MiCA) and the on-chain mechanics — blockchain transaction tracing, VASP due diligence, and the travel rule in practice. That combination is rare, and increasingly what regulators and compliance teams need. I'm actively exploring FinCrime, AML/CFT, VASP Compliance, and Crypto Investigations roles — globally and remote-first. If you're building a compliance team that takes financial crime seriously, let's connect.
