From building the team to building the system.

Risk & Data Analytics Leader
Hands-on with AI and automation.

I lead teams and build analytics platforms, automation, and AI-assisted workflows that strengthen controls and help leadership make better decisions. My engineering background keeps me close to the work, from understanding the problem to building the solution and putting it into use.
