FRAUD STRATEGY
See the pattern. Act on it.
Investigating account takeover, card testing, merchant fraud, and organized abuse, then translating those findings into controls and monitoring.
My work sits at the intersection of fraud, analytics, and customer experience. I’m interested in the patterns behind the numbers and what we can do about them.
A little about me01 / ABOUT ME
I’m drawn to work where understanding the details can change the bigger picture.
My background spans buy now, pay later, digital banking, consumer lending, and business operations. Along the way, I’ve worked on everything from payment reconciliation and dispute workflows to transactional fraud strategy.
Today, I’m a Senior Fraud Risk Analyst at Zip. I work across investigation, detection, and control implementation, partnering with product, engineering, data science, and operations to turn findings into action.
I enjoy connecting the analytical work to the real-world decision: what a pattern means, who it affects, and how to make the response practical. That curiosity also keeps me exploring automation, AI, and agents.

02 / WHAT I FOCUS ON
The questions that keep me interested sit between fraud behavior, business performance, and the customer experience.
FRAUD STRATEGY
Investigating account takeover, card testing, merchant fraud, and organized abuse, then translating those findings into controls and monitoring.
ANALYTICS
Evaluating signals, rules, and vendors. Connecting fraud losses, dispute rates, and customer approvals so a decision reflects more than one metric.
AUTOMATION & OPERATIONS
Improving dispute workflows, reporting, and recurring analysis so teams can spend more time on judgment and less time on repetitive work.
03 / MY PERSPECTIVE
A stronger control matters. So does the experience of the person on the other side of it.
I think about fraud decisions through both lenses: reducing losses and keeping legitimate activity moving. That means questioning the data, understanding the trade-offs, and checking what actually happens after a change goes live.
I like owning a problem from the initial investigation through implementation and follow-up. The most useful analysis is the kind that leads to a decision and holds up when it’s put into practice.
04 / MY BACKGROUND
Each role has shaped how I think about risk, data, and the way a business operates.
