About

I became involved in Private Investigation in 1996 because of my lifelong love for law enforcement, and the hard working men and women who go out every day protecting the people of their communities. I had many friends and family who are in law enforcement, and quickly learned that they had very limited support and resources to do their jobs effectively. I believed that I could help the citizens of North Carolina in a different way, and chose to work in the private sector.

Over the past decades, I’ve been honored to help countless individuals find solutions to their unique situations. My client's trust and confidentiality are my first priority.

Outside of my work as a Private Investigator, I volunteer my time at Brother Wolf Animal Rescue, the largest No Kill Shelter and Rescue in North Carolina. I am also a regional Investigator for North Carolina Prison Legal Services, an organization dedicated to providing services to indigent inmates.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us if we can help with your investigation needs.
