Dr. Mozelle Martin's career in forensic handwriting analysis began in 1987, building on a strong foundation in document examination, forensic psychology, and criminology. After serving in the U.S. military, she transitioned into entrepreneurship, founding her forensic consulting firm under the name Forensology—a term she coined in high school. Her expertise quickly garnered international recognition, leading to a global clientele. Later, Script Forensics became a division of Forensology, which was rebranded in partnership with Forensic Document Examiner Dawn McCarty before Dr. Martin stepped into semi-retirement.
Ink Profiler is not a business name but rather a professional nickname, reflecting Dr. Martin’s unique approach of combining her forensic psychology and criminology background with forensic handwriting analysis—a combination that sets her apart from most other handwriting experts.
Although now “mostly retired” from public forensic consulting, Dr. Martin continues to provide:
✔ Law enforcement & corrections training
✔ Cold case consulting for investigative teams
✔ Expert forensic handwriting analysis for select cases
She no longer offers private casework, mentorship, or most services. Instead she is focused on writing and providing training and case consulting on select investigations.
