Hi all. Next Monday marks 2 months since I’ve been unemployed. I’m a Baruch grad with a Cornell Securities Law cert, & I specialize in KYC/AML, specifically doing onboarding, 4-eye checks, and AML checks outside of onboarding requests. I was at Cantor Fitzgerald from Jan 2019 to Apr 2025, & my mission is to aim higher, specifically for firms like Goldman, Citi, JPM, FINRA, etc. I would deeply appreciate any referrals, seriously. Thank you all in advance.

Would like suggestions on which plants I can buy that are safe to leave alone with my cat 😸
