Quantico, Va

Created 3D simulations and 3D environments to support FBI training initiatives. These simulations were designed to help familiarize new agents to the process of forensic collections. Simulations provided an interactive instruction on how to process a crime scene, proper chain of evidence, forensic photography, and fingerprint collection. Additional simulations were created to teach proper evidence collection techniques for post-blast car bomb scenarios and airplane crash investigations.… Show more Created 3D simulations and 3D environments to support FBI training initiatives.
