About

I work in financial-crime and crypto compliance training. I design and deliver programs that teach banks, fintechs, and crypto companies how blockchain actually works, how money moves on-chain, and how to detect and investigate illicit activity (fraud, sanctions evasion, scams, etc.). I spend a lot of time translating very technical blockchain concepts into practical controls and investigative workflows for compliance teams, analysts, and regulators.

Experience

About a decade in AML/BSA and financial-crime investigations across banking, payments, and digital assets. I started in traditional financial institutions doing investigations, SAR work, and FIU support, then moved into crypto compliance and blockchain analytics. Today I lead training and enablement programs for banks, fintechs, and crypto platforms—helping them understand on-chain activity, assess risk, and build investigation and monitoring capabilities around sanctions, fraud, and typologies unique to digital assets.

Education

Masters Degree of Science: Cybercrime
