Kevin turns compliance challenges into strategic opportunities. As Director and Engagement Principal at Ember Group Consulting, he helps organizations navigate the complex intersection of risk management, financial crimes compliance, and operational transformation across financial services, manufacturing, retail, and transportation sectors.

His 25-year career has made him the consultant executives call when regulatory pressure intensifies and operational performance matters. At North Highland, Kevin served as Service Delivery Director, leading senior consulting teams through initiatives that transformed how major corporations approached regulatory challenges. His work consistently achieved what many compliance programs struggle to deliver: measurable risk reduction that actually improved operational performance.

Kevin’s analytical rigor and innovative thinking set him apart. He doesn’t just implement frameworks—he designs risk and control systems that enhance how organizations operate. His regulatory remediation strategies and governance enhancements have strengthened the regulatory standing of clients while improving their day-to-day business efficiency.

What clients value most is Kevin’s ability to see compliance not as a constraint but as a foundation for competitive advantage. His expertise in financial crimes compliance and operational excellence helps organizations move from defensive postures to strategic positions.

Kevin holds an MBA in Corporate Finance from UNC Charlotte’s Belk College of Business and certifications as a Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS) and Six Sigma Black Belt. At Ember Group Consulting, he continues helping clients navigate the complexities of risk, compliance, and business transformation with strategies that protect the organization while enabling growth. As regulatory environments evolve, Kevin positions compliance expertise as a competitive differentiator—unlocking market expansion, supporting digital transformation, and enabling strategic initiatives that less agile competitors struggle to pursue.
