Meet Alexandra Valencia

Alexandra Valencia is a former Intelligence Research Specialist with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), where she contributed to numerous criminal investigations involving drug and weapons trafficking, financial crimes, and terrorist financing. One of her major cases focused on Colombia’s largest cocaine supply network supporting the Sinaloa Cartel, a complex investigation that spanned multiple countries and agencies.

Today, Ms. Valencia serves as a Senior BSA/AML Analyst in the financial industry, where she continues her mission to combat financial crimes. With the rapid rise of scams and fraud, she has developed a strong interest in cryptocurrency investigations and compliance.

Driven by a passion for community education and financial safety, Ms. Valencia founded Crypto Made for Me — an initiative designed to provide practical, judgment-free education about digital assets. Her goal is to help everyday individuals navigate the crypto space with clarity and confidence.

Crypto Made for Me offers welcoming, plain-English sessions created especially for people who don’t consider themselves “techy.” Through these efforts, Ms. Valencia empowers communities to understand the basics, recognize red flags, and make safer choices in the evolving world of digital finance.
