Before joining Kroll, Eric worked as Senior Manager of the Amazon Cyber Threat Intelligence Team, which leveraged in-depth investigations of sophisticated threat actors and specialized technical expertise to disseminate timely, accurate and actionable threat intelligence to Amazon leadership, service teams, external AWS customers and trusted partners.

Previously, Eric served in the FBI as Special Agent focused on organized crime and cyber matters. He led the coordination of global, complex investigations to disrupt and dismantle cybercriminal enterprises and nation-state-supported groups.

Eric was the first permanently assigned FBI Assistant Legal Attache at Europol. In that role, he helped lead the FBI’s efforts within the Joint Cyber Action Task Force, a multiagency effort that facilitates the identification, preparation and initiation of cross-border investigations and operations; prioritizes and coordinates high-profile investigations among member agencies; and coordinates synchronized actions against key cybercrime threats.
