Munshi began his law enforcement career in August 2002, as a Special Agent in the Denver Field Office of the U.S. Secret Service (USSS) where he led criminal investigations related to counterfeit currency, bank fraud, and other financial crimes. After six years in the field, Munshi successfully completed the selection process for acceptance into the Special Operations Division Counter Assault Teams (CAT) in Washington, D.C. As a CAT operator, he participated in and led dozens of protective missions for the President of the United States and other dignitaries both domestically and overseas. Munshi was also designated as a liaison to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Hostage Rescue Team where he served on joint FBI/USSS tactical security teams in support of numerous National Special Security Events.

Munshi deployed overseas several times with the 3rd Marine Division to lead multi-national training missions. He also directed security and humanitarian operations while serving as a Security Force Commander in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

In his personal time, Munshi has developed security programs and delivered training to non-profit organizations focused on philanthropic work overseas. He has traveled extensively to Africa in support of those missions.
