Kevin spent 21 years with the New York State Police where he saw the correlation between crime and money laundering on his first detail in undercover narcotics. He followed the money moving to a major crimes unit which led to an assignment with the FBI led Hudson Valley White Collar Crimes Task Force. For his last 9 years with the State Police Kevin was assigned to the New York HIFCA (High Intensity Financial Crimes Area) of the ICE led El Dorado Task Force in Manhattan where he was the NY State Money Laundering Investigations Coordinator. This is one of the largest AML task forces in the world consisting of members from the FBI, ICE, US Secret Service, DEA, Postal Inspectors, NYPD, NYSP, Manhattan DA and US Attorney. High profile organized crime and terrorist financing were the usual case load. It was here that Kevin became a lead instructor for ICE’s Operation Cornerstone providing a liaison between private financial institutions and law enforcement.

Kevin’s education and certification includes a masters degree in Financial Crimes Compliance Management, Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS), certified Anti-Money Laundering Professional (AMLP), and Certified Cybercrime Currency Investigator (CCI).
