As the Founder of RHEM Labs, I lead the development of AI-driven forensic and legal automation solutions, integrating Generative AI, digital forensics, and cloud platforms (Google Cloud & Microsoft Azure) to enhance accessibility and forensic investigations. With a PhD in Digital Forensics and expertise in Responsible AI, my work focuses on advancing AI-powered forensic analysis, streamlining digital disclosure, evidence processing, and expert reporting.
I lead the design and deployment of LoganAI, an AI-powered forensic and legal automation platform that leverages LLMs (Large Language Models), secure cloud computing, and digital forensic methodologies to support expert witnesses, forensic analysts, and legal professionals. These solutions enable automated case analysis, forensic triage, and AI-assisted document generation while ensuring compliance with legal evidentiary standards.
Key contributions include:
Development of AI-assisted forensic automation techniques to enhance eDiscovery, case assessment, and evidence processing.
Deployment of secure forensic AI systems on Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud to ensure compliance, scalability, and data security.
Integration of AI models for forensic analysis and document synthesis to support expert witness preparation.
Advocacy for Responsible AI in forensic and legal applications, ensuring AI-assisted methods align with ethical and legal frameworks.
Through RHEM Labs, I continue to advance AI and cloud computing applications in forensic science, collaborating with legal professionals, forensic experts, and industry stakeholders to drive innovation in expert testimony preparation and digital investigations.

Postdoctoral Research Fellow
University of Adelaide
Adelaide, Australia
2023 - 2023
Working with Associate Professor Russell Brewer, I was responsible for the development of a novel system which assisted in victim identification for CSAM investigations. This research seeks to improve current investigative practices via the development of a novel automated software infrastructure that leverages the voice and facial attributes of subjects to match victims and offenders across CSAM videos. This research is funded by the Department of Home Affairs through the Australian Institute of Criminology and has industry partnerships with Oracle and South Australian law enforcement.

Researcher in Digital Forensics (Casual)
University of Adelaide
Adelaide, Australia
2020 - 2022
Working with Dr Matthew Sorell, I explored the forensic applications of 3D imaging methods. During this time, I developed a novel framework to test the accuracy, precision, and performance of commercial off-the-shelf technologies involved in 3D imaging. This pipeline visualization was presented to the Forensic Capability Network’s 3D Experts Group, Research Festival, and the INTERPOL Digital Forensic Experts Group.
I also explored the impacts of Snapchat as a source of open-source intelligence. Through this research, a fatal error in the Snapchat platform was discovered which resulted in a significant security issue. This issue could lead to the identification of individual users and the subsequent ability to track them via their postings onto the Snapchat platform. It was responsibly and ethically disclosed to Snap Inc. and awarded a bug bounty as well as researcher thanks.

Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Cyber Intelligence
RHEM Labs
Adelaide, Australia
2020 - 2021
Working as a subcontractor for the NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence, this research position would normally have been undertaken as a postdoctoral research position based at the center. However, due to travel restrictions imposed by the global COVID-19 pandemic, the research was undertaken as a subcontractor in my home nation. Through this collaboration, I developed a framework to assess the relevant technological risk posed by generative adversarial networks to an emerging intelligence field known as cyber intelligence. In this work, we assisted in defining what cyber intelligence is, investigated different applications of generative adversarial networks within the cyber intelligence domain, and determined the framework to assess them. The work was published in the CCDCOE’s internal library.

Research Motivation
My research interests are primarily focused in the discipline of the Forensic Sciences. My current focus is towards forensic validation generally, digital and media forensics specifically, and the nature of science philosophically. I have strong interests in all types of media including visual and audio and apply this to current and emerging issues within cybersecurity, intelligence, and forensic science.
During my MBA at the University of Adelaide, I was introduced to the concept of ensuring our skills were employed solving the right problems faced within our modern world. Pedophilia, human trafficking, and abuse inflicted against children are some of the most abhorrent crimes known to our modern society. The technological revolution that was ushered in with the internet disrupted all industries, including our ability to combat these vile crimes. In my work, I continue building towards systems that will automatically detect, filter, and disrupt online abuse in all its forms.
My take on this work is unique due to the integration of systems thinking. I ensure my tools are built with the forensic process in mind, ensuring that not only is abhorrent media eliminated from our networks, but evidence of the crime is preserved leading to successful prosecution. However, breaking a single link is not enough. To completely eradicate the problem of online abuse and human trafficking, measures need to be taken to disrupt the system at all possible intervention points. On one hand, my work focuses on the detection, moderation, classification, and storage of online abuse material. On another, it studies the methods of analysis, categorization, linkage, and provenance of online abuse and surveillance material. Through the integration of systems thinking, these tools create leverage to disrupt at the critical point of dissemination and creation. Such disruption leads to a greater ability in locating those who are victims of these crimes.
I acknowledge that my own work is not enough to solve the issues recognized by the systems-level analysis of the problem. Recognizing the limitations technology has, through international and interdisciplinary collaborations, the human, psychological, and criminological elements of these challenges become clear leading to victim-centric reforms, educational programs, and cultural changes to eliminate the socioeconomic factors leading to environments which cater to online abuse.

SnapScraper is an open-source intelligence tool which enables users to download media uploaded to Snapchat’s Snap Map using a set of latitude and longitude coordinates.
Developed in Swift in 2020.
This project led to an honours project for 3 students in 2021 at the University of Adelaide to expand upon the functionality for automatically moderating the content uploaded to social media networks using convolutional networks.
A decision was made to release this innovation under an MIT license rather than pursue a patent due to the application space for the law enforcement and intelligence community at large.

Working under Dr Matthew Sorell, I was responsible for the course coordination and teaching of 60 students completing Design and Innovation. This course looks to teach students further professional practice skills including writing, presentation, and consulting skills needed for job-ready graduates. Assessment includes the use of two essays, a semester-long group project, and an innovative peer assessment which enabled the full participation of all students in group work. This caused the assessment of previous years to change from weighted HD and Ds to Ds and Cs reflecting better practice in line with school expectations. This course was revised to be taught in a blended mode this year due to COVID-19. I was responsible for teaching the online lectures and workshops while the teaching load was shared with a fellow member of the teaching staff who taught an additional workshop in person.
