I am a Forensic Criminologist based in Centurion and appear in court as an expert witness. I hold a specialist degree in Offender Profiling obtained Cum Laude in 2006. This degree includes majors in psychology and criminology as well as numerous justice, law and police science modules. I went on to obtain my Honours Degree in Criminology. I have extensive training and experience in the field of Investigation and offender profiling. 
I have been a guest speaker at the North-West University in Potchefstroom in the field of Forensic Social Work. Furthermore I lecture on various topics including but not limited to offender profiling, profiling of terrorists, the investigation of white collar crime, the paraphilias, personality disorders, medico legal forensics, the application of criminal law, body language, veracity testing, sex related homicide and death investigations. I became a bestselling author in South Africa Last year with my first book which I wrote together with e news journalist Liezl Thom. It was an absolute blast and got me hooked on writing.

I am married to an awesome guy and have an amazing son who I love to death but who drives me crazy on a daily bases! I love my animals to death and am besotted with my birds,Galileo the Gallah cockatoo keeps me in stitches for at least a few min every day, he is adorable and very vocal. The Cockatiel population is always on the increase here with the arrival of new rescue cases and babies on a regular bases,
