His background integrates forensic accounting, fraud examination, forensic audit techniques, and diverse investigative experience—providing clients with clear, defensible investigative and analytical findings that support informed, actionable decisions in both criminal and civil contexts.
Terry is a retired FBI Forensic Accountant with extensive experience supporting criminal and national security investigations and working with both domestic and international law‑enforcement partners. During his FBI career, he served as a Regional Program Manager within the Forensic Accountant Unit, where he planned, executed, and oversaw multiple investigative programs across large geographic regions. He also served as a Supervisory Forensic Accountant in one of the FBI’s largest field divisions, directing and developing a multidisciplinary team in support of the Bureau’s highest‑priority cases.
Earlier, he was a member of the Forensic Accountant Support Team (FAST), a rapid‑deployment group supporting complex financial investigations both domestically and internationally, including matters involving fraud, illicit finance, cryptocurrency, and international funds tracing. As part of FAST, he deployed to Ukraine in 2014 following the collapse of the Ukrainian government, supporting a kleptocracy investigation during a period of significant political and security instability.
Terry also served as a steering‑group member of the Association of Law Enforcement Forensic Accountants (ALEFA), an international initiative supported by the European Commission and EUROPOL, The Hague, Netherlands. In this role, he contributed to the planning, development, and delivery of advanced financial‑investigative training for member‑country participants, strengthening cross‑border collaboration and investigative capability.
Before joining the FBI, Terry retired as a Special Agent with the U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Division (CID). His military career included major felony investigations ranging from death investigations to complex, multi‑year, multi‑agency, multi‑million‑dollar defense‑contract fraud investigations, as well as counterterrorism operations, covert activities, and protective service missions for senior military and civilian leaders. His assignments spanned both CONUS and OCONUS environments, providing broad operational and leadership experience.
Terry’s background also includes significant corporate investigative work, including internal audit and forensic roles with a major healthcare provider, as well as leading complex insurance investigations for a major insurance provider. He has provided consulting and forensic services to legal, business, and government entities throughout his career.
In addition to his operational work, Terry has an extensive instructional background. He served as the lead instructor for the FBI’s forensic accounting training program, where he developed, facilitated, and delivered core curriculum at the FBI Academy. He also provided overview instruction to new FBI agents on forensic accounting and cryptocurrency investigations. Beyond the Academy, he has developed and delivered training for federal law‑enforcement personnel, Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) staff, other military‑intelligence professionals, and served as an adjunct instructor and guest speaker for the U.S. Army Military Police School (USAMPS), delivering advanced investigative‑management training for CID Special Agents. He has also taught criminal justice and business courses for higher‑education institutions, both online and on‑ground. Throughout his career, he received numerous FBI and military service awards recognizing his leadership, instructional impact, and investigative accomplishments, including the FBI Medal of Excellence.
Today, through Financial Investigative Solutions, Terry provides clients with precise, experience‑driven financial forensics, forensic accounting, and investigative consulting grounded in decades of operational practice.
