About me

I am a legal and banking professional with 18 years of experience in banking operations, branch management, compliance, and corporate administration. Over the years, I have held leadership roles including Bank Branch Director for more than 13 years and currently serve as a Company Secretary in a municipally-owned company. My expertise lies in legal support, regulatory compliance, risk management, and corporate governance.

I am highly organized, responsible, and results-oriented, with a strong background in preparing documentation for board meetings, providing legal analysis, and monitoring regulatory compliance. I have extensive experience drafting and updating internal regulations, bylaws, and procedures, as well as coordinating with legal and administrative departments.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated strong team leadership skills, managing operational and financial aspects of bank branches, overseeing credit risk assessment, and driving business development and sales strategies. I am adept at client portfolio management and ensuring service quality.

I have also been involved in additional responsibilities such as serving as a member of the Bank Credit Committee and president of the Debt Write-off Commission. My professional training includes certifications in operational risk management, anti-money laundering, corporate banking, and international bank guarantees.

I am proficient in Microsoft Office applications, banking software, email communication, virtual meetings, and document management systems. I have intermediate working proficiency in English and am seeking remote opportunities in legal support, compliance, operations, or executive assistance where I can leverage my skills and experience.
