Biography

I have over 20 years of Compliance experience in the financial services industry, working with Securities Dealers in both Institutional and Wealth Management, as well as with Mutual Fund Dealers and Personal Banking. My work has focused on compliance oversight, suitability reviews, policy development, and trade supervision.

I have conducted real-time reviews of institutional and proprietary trading on Canadian marketplaces, tested for UMIR rule compliance, handled client complaints, evaluated trade systems, and reviewed materials for regulatory approval. My experience also includes privacy and ethics (PIPEDA), Anti-Money Laundering (AML), and marketing compliance.

On the regulatory side, I worked at IIROC in Canada as a Trade Conduct Compliance Examiner, and with the Securities and Futures Authority in the UK, performing reviews of international securities dealers.

I’ve held roles at leading firms such as Credit Suisse Securities, National Bank Financial, BMO Capital Markets, BMO Financial Group, CIBC, Goldman Sachs Canada, and Wood Gundy.

I studied at York University and hold a Branch Manager Certificate and a Canadian Investment Funds certification.

Outside of work, I enjoy travel, basketball, and hiking. I also volunteer at my local synagogue, The Village Shul.
