Jessica Currie - (c) 2011
As a criminologist, regulatory consultant and anti-money laundering professional, my interests lie broadly in how political, legal and social institutions respond to complex problems in an era of globalisation and rapid social change. My perpetual interest in criminal behaviour and social responses drives my career and academic pursuits.
I hold undergraduate degrees in Arts and Science, majoring in criminology, psychology and history. I also hold a first class honours degree in criminology, where I specialised in the field of white collar crime and corruption. I am currently completing my Master of Public and International Law at the University of Melbourne.
