He spent the first ten years at Turkey and the eastern United States offices, where he participated in several significant narcotics and money-laundering investigations. Brian Shanahan’s two decades of tenure as a DEA case agent was marked by consistent excellence and superior job performance that resulted in him receiving a letter of commendation from the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida.

In 2009, Brian Shanahan earned a promotion to a supervisory special agent, a post he held until his retirement in 2018. Over the ten years in this position, he tallied many achievements, including dismantling dozens of drug-trafficking organizations, resulting in large seizures of narcotics and a significant amount of drug related proceeds. His tenure as a supervisory special agent also saw him advise DEA investigations on matters related to funding and logistics, and he additionally carried out responsibilities as the coordinator of the New York- and New Jersey-based Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force.

Mr. Shanahan achieved Top Secret/SCI clearance during his career in federal law enforcement. Conversational in Russian and Turkish and maintaining intimate familiarity with US equity markets, he is currently seeking a position that allows him to employ his extensive skills.
