Summary

This is his passion. Since being laid off in 2009 with JPMC, as an AML Internal Auditor, his goal has been to work long term for a good company in this capacity which brings him to this opportunity with Deutsche Bank, as AFC Principal Auditor (AVP) role in Jacksonville FL. Working in the capacity of AML Internal Audit, he believes is his ideal place. He was in this capacity with JP Morgan Chase & Co. (JPMC) back in 2008 – 2009, after working the first and second lines of defense. Due to a bank merger, their AML Department in Northern California was eliminated. This put him into consulting work for employment. It came by default, and his goal has been to return to this capacity for the long term.

As a consultant for most of the last ten years or so, he can bring best practices from the many financial institutions He has worked with cultures, processes, procedures, systems, etc. With wearing “many different hats” in all three lines of defense from an analyst to management in domestic and global financial institutions, as well as, the various divisions of them, he believes his strengths are best utilized in AML Audit or similar capacity.

Patrick has been CAMS certified since 2007 and has close to 20 years of AML experience.
