About

Hi! I’m Trish, and I’ve wanted to be a detective since I was a little girl.

It was always about a desire to help people. A desire to uncover hidden secrets and find lost things. A desire to see justice done.

Family Background

I grew up with a deep respect for law enforcement….

  • Documentaries and true crime shows
  • Genealogies
  • Podcasts
