She has an LLM in Financial Risk Management and is a Certified Mediator, combining technical expertise with a focus on clear communication and problem-solving. Amber sees compliance as a partnership, not a roadblock. She works with founders, executive teams, engineers, and data scientists to manage risk and support growth through practical frameworks that actually work. Her experience includes CMS and AML programs, model governance, AI and machine learning oversight, data governance, enterprise risk management, and enforcement remediation. She’s known for building trust and navigating complicated situations, whether that’s sponsor bank relationships, high-growth startup pressures, or regulatory examinations. Amber is comfortable leading audits and remediation efforts, but she’s also willing to build programs from scratch when that’s what’s needed. Her approach: create compliance programs that scale, hold up under scrutiny, and fit how the business actually operates so compliance enables innovation instead of slowing it down.
