I build digital‑asset businesses where product, compliance, and economics reinforce each other. Over 23 years across global banks, broker‑dealers, hedge funds, Big‑4 advisory, and crypto platforms, I’ve been a board‑trusted operator who ships regulated products and proves their value with hard metrics.
What I’ve done: • Led a $38M P&L and a 210+ specialist team serving Tier‑1 institutions; launched tokenized‑deposit corridors in <6 months, moving eligible treasury flows to 24/7 settlement (+30%) and cutting cycle time >95%. • Productized RWA tokenization (multichain, ERC‑1400‑style controls), ATS‑ready secondary, and institutional custody integrations—reducing reconciliation breaks and time‑to‑market ~40%. • Delivered RippleNet/ISO 20022 cross‑border payments, lifting STP by 19 pts and lowering nostro prefunding by ~$120M; integrated case management and on‑chain surveillance to drop false positives ~31%. • Built and audited stablecoin, prime brokerage, and wallet orchestration stacks with NYDFS/SEC/FINRA‑grade controls, Travel Rule/KYT, sanctions screening, and evidence built into the SDLC.
Why it works: I translate regulation into product requirements, pricing, and OKR dashboards. I negotiate vendors, design operating models, and stand up controls that regulators trust—so Compliance isn’t a tax; it’s a moat.
What’s next: I’m ready to scale the next wave of regulated digital‑asset products—RWA, stablecoin/payments, custody/prime—at a bank, exchange, or fintech that wants revenue growth without compliance surprises.
I used to manage risk. Now I tokenize it, collateralize it, and make sure it’s audit-ready by design.
