About

An innovative investigator and leader with 18 years experience specialising in fraud, financial crime, and cybercrime. As a senior manager, I have led teams of skilled investigators dealing with complex investigations including cryptocurrency, money laundering, bribery and corruption, complex fraud, and cybercrimes. It’s not just a profession, but a passion. I thrive on applying technological solutions to new and emerging crime types, ensuring the workforce has the skills and tools to compete and contend in an ever-evolving threat landscape. Technical analysis and experimental development are my go-to strategies to crack any case. With a BSc in cybersecurity, a diploma in leadership, and professional certifications in crypto investigations, cyber essentials, cyber security, and financial crime, I am always driven by a hunger for learning. My journey has led me through the British Army, law enforcement and into my current role as a Financial Crime Risk Manager within Barclays UK, where I am at the forefront of combating financial crime. Today, alongside my role at Barclays UK, I've ventured into entrepreneurship, co-founding a start-up company that utilises Vertical Growing technologies, to cultivate trees under controlled conditions, while also spearheading research and development efforts in the field.
