Detective Sergeant, Confiscator and accredited Financial Investigator with the London Metropolitan Police, Central Specialist Crime. I have extensive experience with complex fraud, financial and money laundering investigations, specializing in transactional analysis and asset tracing. I am known for my analytical ability and my written and verbal communication skills, particularly in conveying complex ideas in an accessible manner to both internal and external stakeholders and at all organisational levels. Prior to joining the Metropolitan Police, I was a freelance writer and editor. As a founding Senior Music Editor at Amazon.co.uk, I played a key role in the launch of the music site in 1999, and in Amazon's transition from a start-up to a successful online business.
