Professional Experience

Throughout my career, I have combined data science, financial intelligence, and business analytics to drive impactful outcomes. At Bangladesh Bank’s Financial Intelligence Unit, I have led data-driven AML/CFT initiatives, including the National Risk Assessment, illicit fund flow modelling, and cross-border asset recovery using advanced financial analysis tools. Previously, as Business Intelligence & Analytics Manager at VEON Group’s Banglalink, I spearheaded analytics projects that influenced 37 million customers, built enterprise dashboards, and automated decision systems to enhance operational efficiency. My journey has been defined by a commitment to teamwork, innovation, and a drive to make data a transformative tool.
