Dea Headquarters Office Of Global Enforcement/Financial Operations

As a Washington DC based staff coordinator in DEA Headquarters/ Office of Global Enforcement/Financial Operations I coordinated and supported anti-money laundering investigations occurring throughout the continental USA, Africa, Asia and Europe. I also coordinated and fulfill all requests for Anti-Money Laundering/Bank Secrecy Act training in the aforementioned areas. My primary responsibility was to support field investigations and ensure that sensitive investigative activities were conducted with the appropriate oversight and direction at both the headquarters level and within the domestic field division and foreign regional offices. This support was conducted through substantial on site visits as well as through video conferences which I conduct from my office.

U.S. Embassy Islamabad Pakistan

As the DEA Country Attache I served as the embassy's central point of contact regarding narcotics investigations that were regional and trans-national in scope. I managed a supervisory special agent, several senior special agents, intelligence analysts and support staff members. I also conducted extensive liaison with host country senior law enforcement executives and policy makers as well as law enforcement liaison staff from foreign embassies located in Islamabad. I led U.S. efforts to develop the capacity of Pakistani law enforcement agencies to conduct complex investigations of trans-national narcotics trafficking and associated money laundering. I also served on several committees within the U.S. Embassy that were focused on addressing criminal justice issues with Pakistani counterpart agencies and developing the capacity of Pakistani law enforcement agencies to deliver public safety solutions and initiatives to enhance the rule of law within Pakistan.

Dea Caribbean Division, San Juan, Puerto Rico

As a Supervisory Special Agent I led investigations focused on the large scale movement through airports within Puerto Rico of narcotics consignments distributed within the island and the cash proceeds of narcotics trafficking within Puerto Rico to the Continental United States, Latin America and Mexico. Additionally I also served served as the DEA Caribbean Division's OCDETF Representative and supervisor of the Asset Forfeiture Group (ARG). As the supervisor of the ARG, I developed a yearly Anti-Money Laundering/Bank Secrecy Act (AML/BSA) investigations seminar for members of the Banking Industry in Puerto Rico. During my tenure in Puerto Rico I also served as the Acting Assistant Regional Director with managerial oversight of DEA foreign offices located in: Barbados, Curacao, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Jamaica, Suriname, and Trinidad.

Us Embassy Bogota, Colombia

As a Senior Special Agent in the DEA Bogota Country Office I worked closely with and mentored members of a DEA Vetted Unit composed of select personnel from the Cuerpo Technico De Investigaciones (CTI) of the Fiscalia General De La Republica De Colombia. During my tenure with the CTI Vetted Unit I directed investigations which resulted in scores of extraditions of Colombia based defendants to US District Courts located in Chicago, Illinois, New York City and Miami, Florida. Included in these extraditions were corrupt public officials who were supporting the activities of targeted drug trafficking organizations. These investigations also resulted in multi-ton seizures of narcotics and significant seizures of assets to include real estate, vehicles, cash and other valuables that represented the proceeds of illicit narcotics trafficking. I also coordinated the selection, vetting, and training of personnel assigned to the CTI Vetted Unit. The mentoring and expertise I shared with members of the CTI Vetted Unit greatly contributed to developing the professional capacity of the unit and its eventual evolution into a DEA Special Investigations Unit.
