Joe is truly passionate about all things Intelligence. He is frequently researching new techniques and methods to enhance collection and analysis. Beyond OSINT, Joe is also aggressively researching Image Intelligence (IMINT), Social Media Intelligence (SOCMINT), Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI), Geospatial Intelligence (GEOINT), and Data Science (Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence/AI, etc.) from a lens of Open Source techniques. Joe is consistently finding ways to leverage open source data to enable adjacent forms of Intelligence beyond OSINT.
