What you will learn
In this episode, I sat down with DJ Rossini, Managing Director at Grant Thornton and former FBI Chief Counsel and Compliance Officer.
DJ brings a wealth of experience across healthcare fraud, counter-terrorism, money laundering, internal investigations, and corporate compliance.
We go over what really works in fraud detection and prevention, including:
* How a “see something, say something” culture is the essential first step
* Why zero hotline reports is actually a red flag
* The most effective controls companies can implement as soon as tomorrow

Curriculum
Your instructor
I’m an Internal Audit Manager at Casey’s in Ankeny, IA and host of the AUDIT 15 FUN podcast. Before Casey’s, I led financial and operational audits at FedEx Services across Latin America and the Caribbean, giving me hands-on exposure to how fraud actually happens—and how to stop it. In this course, I team up with former FBI professional DJ Rossini to blend corporate audit rigor with law-enforcement insight, turning real-world cases into practical, repeatable best practices you can apply immediately.
I’m passionate about making fraud prevention clear, actionable, and grounded in reality. My teaching is case-driven and focused on red flags, control design, investigative steps, and response playbooks you can take back to your team. I hold a BS in Finance (Upper Iowa University), a Master’s in Financial Fraud and Investigations (Pfeiffer University), and the CPA (IA), CIA, CFE, and CFF credentials. Through the podcast, I bring lessons from leading practitioners straight into the classroom to help you build stronger, fraud-resilient organizations.
