Episode: 231 Released on September 16, 2024 Description: NIRO Knowledge and NIRO Crime Analysis creator, Nicholas (Nick) Roy, joins us this week to discuss his unique journey into the analytical and teaching world. From playing around with computers in the 80s, Nick had always had a knack for technology and quick learning. He started his law enforcement career as a police dispatcher where he stayed for 12+ years, and during that same time, worked as a records manager for 10+ years at a neighboring police department. As Nick worked for a smaller agency, he had the opportunity to double-up as their crime analyst, leveraging programs such as Microsoft Access, Excel, and PowerBI to his agency’s advantage. Nick credits his success in the law enforcement analysis profession to those within Massachusetts Association of Crime Analysts (MACA) and the further connections he made through the International Association of Crime Analysts (IACA). Nick is currently an IT consultant for Umbral Technologies, and continues to give back to the community through a myriad of training he offers through NIRO Crime Analysis and other establishments.
This episode contains the fan-favorite segment, Don’t Be That Analyst.
CHALLENGE: There are Easter eggs in one of the tables of the Excel chapter that Jason wrote for the IACA textbook. First-person to email us at [email protected] about what the Easter eggs are will receive a $75 gift card from us. Happy hunting!
