Experienced digital forensic and incident response practitioner. Previously worked with clients from various sectors including finance, technology, retail, legal, health, media, and energy, where I led network intrusion investigations, cyber crime and data breach responses, and reverse engineered malicious binaries identified in breached networks.

My wider experience includes developing software solutions for the investigation, monitoring, or mitigation of regulatory compliance and data privacy issues, as well as performing digital forensics in support of criminal matters, covert investigations, high profile litigation, and "bet the ranch" eDisclosure. I have authored numerous expert witness reports used in criminal and civil proceedings and have testified in various UK crown courts, and the New York State Supreme Court.
