About Meg Clawson

With over 20 years as a researcher and educator, I bring expertise in primary and secondary source analysis, compliance documentation, and concise, actionable report-writing—enhanced by five years (20••••19) of independent financial research on publicly traded companies. Using tools like SEC EDGAR, Barron’s, and Zacks Research, I analyzed financials, cross-mapped corporate connections, and synthesized risk intelligence insights, skills I’m now channeling into due diligence and compliance research. I excel in fast-paced settings, delivering rigorous detail and managing complex projects with integrity.My career blends deep research with practical outcomes. As an educator, I crafted narrative reports from public records, designed projects assessing source credibility, and mentored teams in analytical skills—mirroring due diligence processes. My financial research honed my ability to evaluate market positioning and risks, directly applicable to assessing legitimacy and reputation. I’m actively expanding this foundation with OSINT tools like OpenCorporates and AML studies, building on my proficiency with JSTOR, Google Scholar, and SEC EDGAR.I’m eager to apply my analytical mindset, writing precision, and global perspective—rooted in historical and international affairs—to support strategic decision-making for innovative firms like Exiger. With a passion for tackling financial crime, ESG, and third-party risk, I thrive remotely (Zoom, Schoology) and am excited to contribute to mission-driven teams. Let’s connect to discuss how my experience can drive value for your organization!
