My opinions are built on an academically rigorous foundation, leveraging my university-level teaching experience and peer-reviewed forensic methodologies. This is combined with 25 years of law enforcement and financial crime investigation experience. I am accustomed to communicating complex information to a non-technical audience.

My work extended into advanced cryptocurrency tracing, digital forensics, email and VOIP analysis, and international coordination with foreign law enforcement.

This work resulted in a nomination for the Attorney General’s Award from the Department of Justice’s National Crypto...
