      With over 12 years of expertise in Internal Audit, Risk, and Controls across Banking and Wealth Management, I'm passionate about converting control gaps into strategic opportunities for smarter, more efficient processes. I champion openness, collaboration, and being a trusted voice for the business — helping teams see risk and controls gaps not as a hurdle, but as a path to sustainable growth.

      My foundational experience was shaped at Deloitte Singapore Regulatory Advisory, specializing in critical areas like MAS remediation, regulatory gap analysis, and AML/CFT controls assessment.

      I made the deliberate move into the Crypto and FinTech sector because I was energized by the pace of innovation and the chance to apply my traditional finance and banking knowledge to pioneer best-in-class controls for the sector. This transition allows me to be at the forefront of financial evolution, solving for regulatory complexity and scaling compliance practices in the digital economy.
