We started MCG to solve a problem: businesses facing complex AML/CTF obligations without access to the expert resources they need.
With 15 years' experience across multiple AML/CTF compliance and operational roles at major banks, I built my career solving problems, working collaboratively, and most importantly, keeping customer experience front of mind.
As the compliance lead for multiple business streams, I provided subject matter expertise across policy and process embedment, KYC, Transaction Monitoring, new technology design, and complex investigations—advising teams navigating some of the trickiest challenges in banking, always with a focus on collaboration, pragmatic solutions, and keeping the team moving forward under pressure.
But what I enjoy most isn't just solving problems—it’s developing solutions that actually make a difference, doing it with a smile, building talent, and working as a team to make the complicated feel manageable.
