Legal Expert
Lawyer | Sanctions Analyst
Law graduate focused on sanctions governance: I turn regulatory change into clear policies and control libraries, and support 2LoD monitoring & testing with audit-ready evidence logs. Hands-on with EU/OFAC/UK lists (incl. Taiwan controls), OSINT checks, and pre-sign “sanctions gates” in contracts. I track global updates (e.g., EU Travel Rule in force from 30 Dec 2024, MiCA phased application) and translate them into practical updates for FCC risk registers and workflows.
