About

Risk & Compliance Analyst with 5 years in financial crime prevention and operational risk across Payments and FinTech — including Google Payments (Cognizant) and Klarna (Accenture). Currently transitioning into GRC and IT Risk, focused on the EU regulatory landscape: DORA, NIS2, GDPR, ISO 27001, and ISO 31000.

Background in law (PUC Minas, Brazil) combined with hands-on AML/KYC operations provides an uncommon combination: understanding both the regulatory intent behind a control framework and the operational reality of implementing it at scale in a FinTech environment.

Building a practical GRC portfolio to demonstrate applied capability — not just theoretical knowledge.
