Nice to meet you

I'm Charles — and I think compliance is interesting.

Let me prove it to your group.

I'm on a mission to prove that compliance — the thing most people in your organization quietly dread — can be one of the most useful, even interesting, conversations your team has all year.

How I got here

From the exam table to the main stage.

I'm based in Baton Rouge and I've spent my career in and around bank compliance. As a former FDIC examiner, I was the person showing up for your exam. As a former bank Chief Compliance Officer, I was the person sweating it.

These days I lead compliance operations at a SaaS platform for community banks and credit unions, and I teach marketing risk and compliance at the ABA Bank Marketing School. Somewhere along the way I analyzed more than 1,700 CRA performance evaluations — and realized the data tells a genuinely useful story, if someone bothers to translate it.

ON STAGE
Plain-spoken. Data-backed. Actually funny.
What I'm like on stage

Three things people tell me afterward.

Plain-spoken

No jargon, no reading regulations aloud. If your front-line staff can't use it Monday, I cut it.

Data-backed

Every claim is grounded in real exam and lending data — not vibes, not motivational fluff.

Actually funny

Compliance is dry enough on its own. I bring enough humor to keep the whole room awake.
