With over two decades of public and private sector experience, Daniel advises clients on complex forensic accounting, valuation, investigative, and regulatory matters, with significant experience on issues involving private funds, asset managers, and institutional investors. Working alongside clients and their counsel, he develops investigative strategy, defines scope, and applies GAAP and auditing standards to disputed financial issues, with deep expertise in accounting irregularities, valuation disputes, and corporate investigations.
“Daniel’s background spans both the investigative and examination sides of the SEC, which is a rare combination,” said Brad Wilson, Managing Partner, StoneTurn. “He understands how regulators think, what they look for, and how to build a credible investigative record. That kind of firsthand experience is exactly what our clients need when the stakes are high, and welcoming Daniel only deepens an already exceptional bench of forensic accounting and investigations talent.”
Daniel joins StoneTurn following a distinguished career at the SEC, where he served as a forensic accountant in the Division of Enforcement, working closely with Enforcement counsel on high-stakes investigations. His prior service in the SEC’s Investment Adviser and Investment Company Examination program gives him a distinctive perspective on regulatory expectations and compliance risk.
