Investigator

January 1999 to December 1999

Tyson’s Corner, VA

Conducted in-depth investigations of problem security cases as a result of polygraphs of applicants, staff employees and contractors to assist in their adjudication and resolution. Conducted extensive research, reviewed files, wrote summaries, designed new security forms and templates to gather more complete information.

Program Manager/COTR

CIA/DO/Counterintelligence Center/Education Programs Branch

April 1995 to January 1999

CIA Headquarters, McLean, VA

Responsible for creating and managing a $1.5 million-dollar Agency-wide counterintelligence awareness program (called the Counterintelligence and Security Program or CISP) whose goal was to raise counterintelligence awareness throughout the CIA to a more sophisticated level and to change cultural attitudes for more buy-in and support of counterintelligence. The program was initially begun after the arrest of Aldrich Ames and was a Congressionally-mandated program whose progress was reported to Congress. Duties included creating, developing, implementing, managing, budgeting, maintaining and promoting the following initiatives, and as a result, for the first time in Agency history, information about CI was available in a variety of formats on a daily basis geared to the different ways people learn best.

Budgeting/Program Management: Planned and requested five-year budgets, resources and initiatives. Managed four independent contractors and two government contractor companies. Ensured work was done on time and within budget.

Advanced Training Courses: Two new five-day advanced counterintelligence training courses (501: An Overview of Critical Counterintelligence Issues, 502: Key Counterintelligence Events—Offensive Counterintelligence) and one new two-day tactical CI course (202: Vulnerabilities of an Intelligence Officer and Service) for all managers and employees of every directorate provided by a contractor. The initial course was piloted to a group of SIS managers then these courses were run every other week with a waiting list of six months. An altered form of the 202 course was also given to career trainees twice a year and by the direction of the DDO, a video of the 202 course was made and sent out to all stations.

CISP Briefing: A four-hour CI awareness course called “Counterintelligence and Security Program (CISP)” which was mandatory for all Agency employees after the Ames case. While this course was created and implemented before I arrived, I redid the PowerPoint presentation, tightened up the feedback process to see the results of the training and provided more information to the trainers. The course also transitioned to being run from CIC rather than by different offices.

CI Online Database: Created CI Online, a CI resource database on Lotus Notes available to all employees. Collected news, articles, case affidavits and other CI material that was continually added to this database. Served as a primary form of communication of CI awareness and training to the Agency population and promoted Counterintelligence Center’s activities.

CI-TV Videos: Created CI-TV—30 minute video programs about counterintelligence cases that were aired on the Agency’s closed-circuit TV network with a new episode airing each week. Oversaw the production and filming of 71 episodes, managed two contractor companies providing the research, host and video services. Introductions to the CI-TV videos were filmed at espionage-related sites around the greater Washington, DC area to show how espionage takes place where we live and work. Conclusions to the videos were purposefully filmed at the CIA’s Historical Intelligence Collection library in CIA Headquarters to encourage viewers to read books about intelligence and counterintelligence. Wrote advertisements for each week’s episodes which were placed in various communication vehicles including when employees first turned on their computer.

CI Documentary Videos: Managed production of other special video programs including an hour-long documentary on the Ames case called, “To Catch a Spy: The Investigation Leading to the Arrest of Aldrich Ames.” This video featured interviews with key CIA members of the investigative team. Began work on a “SpyWashington” video featuring a KGB Colonel defector looking at the city and its targets through Russian eyes.

CI and Security Video Commercials: Created and oversaw filming and production of a series of six short CI and security awareness commercials that were shown at the end of CI-TV episodes. Featuring music overlays, these commercials reminded employees of their responsibilities to protect information, report foreign contacts and travel, get EAP help for financial or alcohol problems, etc.

Special CI Briefings: Created, promoted, ran special presentations and briefings on counterintelligence in the Agency’s HQ auditorium. This included a damage assessment and denial and deception implications of the Ames case for DI officers; a first-time speech by KGB defector Yuri Nosenko; a Defensive Information to Counter Espionage briefing by ‘DICE Man’ Ray Semko; and five 501 course alumni ‘reunions’—half-day briefings on various topics with special speakers.

CI and Security Survey: Conducted a first-ever Agency-wide survey on CI and Security attitudes and awareness conducted by a professional pollster contractor.

Advertising/Marketing: Promoted and advertised the above initiatives and general CI awareness in various forms throughout the Agency and its facilities.

Through these new initiatives, the CIA became a leader in the Intelligence Community in the area of counterintelligence awareness training.

Other activities at CIC: Designed, formatted and published two training manuals on Asset Validation for the CIC Educational Program Branch office to be used in its course. Transcribed Jim Nicholson debriefings for Counterespionage Group.

Special Agent

CIA/DA/Office of Security/Investigations Division/Washington Field Office (later Headquarters Field Branch)

April 1991 to April 1995

Washington, DC

As an investigator, conducted 380+ background investigations and re-investigations of staff employees, contractors, detailees, applicants and other special cases in a 50-mile radius of the Washington, DC area. Completed high number of cases each month, responded to quick turn-around cases with tight deadlines, reports written clearly in a detailed, ‘word-picture’ manner.

Assisted ASAC in training two classes of new investigators; developed and prepared material; taught segments, reviewed performance of investigators, designed and produced an Agents Manual for trainees and investigators. Participated in 117 hours of special support work of the CIA’s mission.

Analyzed and beta-tested a new computer background investigation report system produced by a contractor; identified a large number of items to be fixed or enhanced for better and easier usability. Redesigned the background investigation report format. Wrote and designed manual for investigators on how to use the new desktop computer and Microsoft Windows, Word, Lotus Notes software.

Wrote, designed and produced a bi-monthly newsletter for the office.

Why was I in the field so long when the normal tour was 18-24 months? The Cold War ended when the Soviet Union ceased to be in December 1991 and everyone’s tours at WFO were frozen in place as the Agency and the Office of Security figured out what to do now without their primary enemy.
