BSc; Master (Forensic Sc)

Forensic Operations
Australian Federal Police
My duties as a crime scene investigator involve the examination and interpretation of crime scenes, as well as the preservation and collection of physical evidence.
I am responsible for the examination of crime scenes, ranging from burglaries and recovered stolen motor vehicles to serious assaults and deaths, including suicides and homicides.
The Forensic Operations section of the Australian Federal Police is also involved with the investigation of major international incidents such as the Bali bombings and the disaster victim identification response to the Boxing Day tsunami.
At UWA, my favourite courses were Anatomy and all of the Forensic units. I joined the Australian Federal Police about twelve months after completing my Masters.
My role as a crime scene investigator has presented me with many satisfying moments, particularly when an identification or link is established between an offender and evidence that I have collected at a crime scene.
