I’m the first in my family born in the United States, and truly believe that my interest in global affairs, travel, and my career success all stem from two major influences: (1) my family’s world view, ability to see things coming, and will to survive; and (2) their refusal to allow anything to interfere with attaining their life goals. As I pursue my professional objectives, I am seeking a new opportunity where I can put my expertise, and analytical skills to work, while exercising my curiosity and creativity to build another new businesses or risk management framework. I am known as the Sherlock Holmes of Risk Management with a talent for turning problems into opportunities. My expertise in global business development and enterprise risk management stems from my various roles with major money center banks and securities industry infrastructure providers. Specifically, I have a strong foundation of hands-on business management experience in complex and challenging market segments, and am highly skilled at identifying and mitigating the risks of financing sovereign states, financial institutions, corporations, individuals, new products and day-to-day transaction processing. I am proficient in all aspects of ERM, [Credit, Market, Liquidity and Operational Risk, including Cyber Security and Business Resiliency] and I have an in-depth understanding of regulatory frameworks and standards. Throughout my career, C-Suite Executives have hired me for my project execution and problem solving skills, and my ability to evaluate and strengthen risk management programs which satisfy regulatory expectations. I am a quick study who establishes strong relationships with clients, boards and regulators. I succeed by using empathy, curiosity, and creativity to connect the dots, unearth unidentified issues, and then develop plans to address and mitigate them.Recently, I was engaged to be an expert witness in a case involving emerging markets debt clearance and settlement. As an officer of my co-op board, I strengthened the process for reviewing and approving buyers, and oversaw several renovation projects for our historic landmark building. As Chair of the Job Club Program and Member of the Steering Committee for the Women's Special Interest Group of the Financial Executives Networking Group (“The FENG”), a volunteer position, I work with executives to help them find new positions and manage their careers. I successfully expanded the number of job clubs from 3 to 8, and developed a Mentoring Program to provide career support to all FENG members.
