About

Professional summary

I am a KYB and FinCrime Analyst with experience in transaction monitoring, fraud risk detection, AML controls, KYC/KYB verification, sanctions screening, and merchant due diligence.

I have supported end-to-end merchant onboarding by reviewing ownership structures, business models, transaction behavior, geographic exposure, and compliance documentation. I am experienced in identifying risks, escalating suspicious activity, and maintaining accurate, audit-ready records.

In my most recent role, I collaborated with product, customer experience, operations, and FinCrime teams to improve compliance workflows and reduce false positives. I also contributed to KYC, KYB, KYS, KYP, and KYE process optimization.

My background also includes HR and onboarding compliance, where I verified employee and vendor documentation, coordinated with legal and finance teams, and supported internal audits and issue resolution.

I hold a BSc in Economic and Political Science with a major in Political Mass Media. I bring strong research, technical writing, communication, Microsoft Office, spreadsheet, and digital marketing skills, with fluency in Arabic and English.
