Randy Shy

Compliance & BSA Specialist

Phone: 320-258-7275

Randy has immersed himself in bank compliance since 2015 and has a solid background in customer service within the banking industry. His achievement of the Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS) designation has propelled him into the realm of cannabis compliance, where he has become deeply engaged in recent years. Randy's expertise in cannabis compliance is rooted in his past roles as a cannabis dispensary manager, assistant grower, and head manufacturer in Denver, CO. During his tenure, he supported the store from a provisional operating license to passing a full inspection and obtaining a permanent license.   

Randy's hands-on experience gives him a deep understanding of the challenges the cannabis industry faces and how the financial industry can assist within regulations. He is motivated to normalize the industry and ensure it becomes accepted as part of the normal economy and recognized as an everyday business providing jobs to people.

Personally, Randy is motivated to take care of and spend time with his wife and their two dogs: Flynn, a basset hound and Melo, a Blue Heeler/Aussie. Away from his work, Randy enjoys reading, building/using computers, watching/playing sports, working on his home, and spending time outdoors especially in the southern Rockies with his family where he uses his Eagle Scout knowledge to get away from the modern world for a while.
