To further enhance her qualifications, Shiou Fun has obtained several industry-recognized certifications, including the Certified Fire and Explosion Investigator (CFEI) designation from the National Association of Fire Investigators (NAFI), and the Fire Investigation Technician (FIT) certification from the International Association of Arson Investigators (IAAI).
With a passion for solving complex fire-related cases and a commitment to professional development, Shiou Fun is driven to provide thorough and accurate investigation in fire and explosion cases, ensuring that each case is approached with the utmost precision and professionalism.
