I find what other people can't. Using open-source intelligence methods, I trace identities, verify information, reconstruct histories, and locate hard-to-find connections — all from publicly available data.

Identity verification & tracing — confirming who someone is, locating individuals, or connecting fragmented identities across platforms and records

Digital footprint analysis — mapping a person's or entity's online presence across social media, public records, archived content, and domain registrations

Provenance & historical research — tracing the origin and ownership history of objects, documents, or claims using archival sources, newspaper databases, and genealogical records

Family history & lineage research — reconstructing family trees, locating biological relatives, and verifying relationships through public records and genealogy databases (note: I'm an OSINT investigative researcher, not a credentialed genealogist — I approach family research as an investigation, not a certification)

Due diligence research — deep-dive background research on individuals, organizations, or claims for legal teams, journalists, nonprofits, or businesses

Cross-platform identity linking — connecting accounts, aliases, and digital trails across multiple platforms and data sources

Every engagement starts with a scoping conversation. I need to understand what you know, what you're trying to find, and what you plan to do with the results. From there I estimate the time and complexity involved and give you a clear quote before any work begins.

My toolkit includes advanced search operators, Google Dorking, reverse image search, WHOIS lookups, Wayback Machine, geolocation tools, social media analysis, public records databases, Ancestry, FamilySearch, newspaper archives, and cross-platform identity linking techniques.

I do not use paid background check services (Spokeo, BeenVerified, etc.) or access any non-public databases. Everything I find comes from open sources — which is exactly what makes OSINT work defensible and repeatable.

Turnaround depends on complexity. Some investigations take a few hours. Others take days. I'll give you a realistic estimate upfront.
