Description

🎯 About me

Data & Analytics professional with 11+ years of experience in fintech, specializing in Risk & Compliance, AML/CFT, regulatory reporting and BI. Holder of the FRM Part 1 certification (GARP) and currently preparing Part 2 — reinforcing my commitment to maintaining cutting-edge risk management standards.

My track record spans three regulatory jurisdictions (ACPR, Banca d'Italia, Sepblac), direct collaboration with French domestic intelligence (DGSI) on terrorist financing detection, and end-to-end delivery of AML and fraud detection frameworks used in production.

I combine deep technical skills (SQL, DBT, Tableau, Power BI, Snowflake, Python) with genuine compliance domain expertise — making me equally comfortable in a data room with regulators and in a code review with engineers.
