B Safe Advisor Group in Fairfax County's Cities and Towns
I am based in Ashburn, in Loudoun County, and have a deep familiarity with Fairfax County and the adjacent towns and cities of Herndon, Vienna, Fairfax City, and Falls Church City. Each has its own police department and its own mix of businesses, schools, and neighborhoods, along with differing risk and threat profiles. When you contact B Safe Advisor Group, you work directly with me, not a rotating team.
I am a Virginia-licensed private investigator and Certified Fraud Examiner with more than 25 years in public safety and federal law enforcement, including time as a federal special agent. I am also a paramedic and a former firefighter. I use that experience to shape my security audits, investigations, training, and the Security Director on Demand service.
Find your community below, or see how I can help. Contact me to start with a confidential, complimentary initial consultation.
Herndon
The Town of Herndon is in northwestern Fairfax County, near Washington Dulles International Airport and a Metrorail Silver Line station. Herndon is part of the Dulles Technology Corridor and hosts numerous large technology companies.
Security and Investigation Needs in Herndon
Herndon combines a historic downtown, the Dulles Technology Corridor, the W&OD Trail, office parks, and neighborhoods close to Washington Dulles International Airport and the Route 28 corridor. That creates a wide range of needs, including:
- Downtown shops, restaurants, and services: theft, payment fraud, cash handling, and employee misconduct.
- Technology, aerospace, and contractor offices: sensitive information, valuable equipment, and insider threats.
- Schools, childcare facilities, and camps: emergency plans for threats, medical emergencies, and missing children.
- Houses of worship and community groups: large gatherings, festivals, volunteers, and donations.
- Employees and families who travel: destination briefings and training for trips from nearby Washington Dulles International Airport.
- Families and individuals: threats, harassment, home security, and scams that target residents.
Offices that handle sensitive information and valuable equipment face insider threats and fraud, while downtown businesses face theft and payment fraud. I help organizations assess risk, screen staff and vendors, and investigate losses.

Security and Investigation Needs in Vienna
Vienna combines a walkable town center, the Maple Avenue corridor, professional offices, and close-knit neighborhoods near Tysons Corner. That creates a wide range of needs, including:

Referred to as the Crossroads of Northern Virginia, the City of Fairfax holds a unique place in history as the location of the Battle of Fairfax Court House (1861), the first land battle of the Civil War that resulted in combat deaths.
Security and Investigation Needs in the City of Fairfax

- Medical, dental, and financial offices: sensitive records, workplace threats, and employee misconduct.
