Senior Data Specialist in federal eDiscovery, processing DOJ litigation files and validating data loads and productions.
What I'm looking for
At CACI, I processed ESI for CFTC, SEC, and DOJ federal projects, preparing review-ready records, database loads, and electronic productions. I used Relativity, LAW PreDiscovery, and Recommind to check metadata and file structures, validate load results, and document exceptions.
At the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, I supported Concordance and dtSearch workflows, including ESI culling, deduplication, and evidence inventories. I also prepared encrypted deliverables and supported staff with legal application and document-access issues.
