Allison Buss – Forensic Review Analyst
Say hello to Allison Buss! Allison is a Forensic Review Analyst at Watchtower Security and a valued team member!
- Can you tell us a bit about yourself and your role at the company?
- How long have you been a part of the Watchtower Security team, and what initially drew you to this company?
- I am 26 years old and have been a part of the Watchtower Security team for about four and a half years. I graduated college with a political science degree, minoring in criminal justice. Immediately after graduating, I was contacted regarding a position with the Forensic Review department. After learning more about the role and the company, I was drawn by the company culture and the position I started with. When starting, I began as an entry-level forensic review analyst and have progressed up to a tier 3 position.
- What does your typical day at Watchtower look like?
- My current responsibilities are to help support my team and the Forensic Review department as a whole to close out our current cases. Throughout a normal workday, I assess incoming cases and get to get a general start on each. I work my cases (which generally consist of higher priority cases (violent offenses, etc.), participate in meetings, and help my supervisor with any support needed throughout the day.
- Can you share a particularly memorable achievement or project you’re proud to have been a part of?
- A particularly memorable case that I am happy to have worked on and completed dealt with a sex offender case in Florida. Over the span of several weeks, a male continued to come back to the property and assault young females. With the evidence we provided to police consisting of identification shots, a compilation video of the events, and images of the suspect’s license plate, police located the offender and arrested him. The male then faced multiple charges, which our full report helped to present.

- Outside of work, what are some of your hobbies or interests? How do you balance your personal passions with your professional life?
- Some hobbies outside of work include playing softball and volleyball, traveling a lot, and playing with my pups.
- Is there a particular quote, book, or piece of advice that resonates with you and influences your approach to work and life?
- A particular movie quote that I love is “Just Keep Swimming” from Nemo (lol). It’s a children’s movie, but for me, it shows that even when things get hard and hardships happen, a better moment will come. You just have to believe that and continue on until it happens.
