TRM Labs Inc.

Investigator

Description

During my career as an investigator in law enforcement I engaged in a constant process of self-development and actively sought out opportunities to use my initiative. As a result of this I worked on investigations covering a broad spectrum of criminality at scales involving everything from local to international footprints. This experience enabled me to build a skillset which incorporated perspectives from many subject areas. In particular I discovered a great passion for learning about the mechanics and applications of crypto assets. This involved both academic work and self-study into the subject. Further to this I was able to develop my knowledge through extensive experience of leading criminal investigations featuring crypto assets and money laundering methodologies. Fortunately this has continued since moving to the private sector. TRM Labs Inc. is a leading entity in the blockchain analysis environment and I have been involved in investigating major incidents such as the FTX compromise in November 2022.
