Investigations, Research and Information Management

I am a licensed inquiry agent based in Tasmania. Before that I spent more than 17 years in law enforcement, most of it on investigations, formal interviewing and intelligence work.

Beyond investigations, I have worked in telecommunications field operations and workplace safety, and I work directly with local and cloud AI systems. I use locally hosted AI to analyse large document sets, and I evaluate the output before I rely on it.
