I am a seasoned Forensic Accountant with over 20 years of experience, specialising in financial crime investigations and Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA) matters. For the past 9 years, I’ve worked exclusively with defence teams, providing expert analysis and support in criminal investigations, confiscation proceedings, and allegations of hidden assets.

My approach is meticulous, objective, and tailored to the unique circumstances of each case. I combine rigorous analysis with clear, concise reporting, helping legal teams navigate complex financial data and identify key issues that could impact the outcome of a case. With a caseload of 15–25 assignments per year, I am adept at managing high-pressure, time-sensitive projects while maintaining exceptional attention to detail.

Clients choose to work with me because of my expertise, commitment to uncovering the facts, and ability to present findings in a manner that is both accessible and impactful. I understand the high stakes involved in financial crime cases and take pride in delivering work that makes a tangible difference.
