Zurvohn Maloof has over 20 years of law enforcement oversight experience, having served all those years in various federal Inspector General offices. His educational background enhances his extensive experience. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with a concentration in Criminology from San Jose State University and a Juris Doctorate from New College of California School of Law. His Juris Doctorate has been invaluable in conducting investigations, understanding legal frameworks, and delivering thorough investigations that often result in policy revisions, administrative actions, or criminal prosecutions.

Zurvohn possesses vast experience from multiple federal Offices of Inspector General, undertaking independent internal investigations. He currently serves as the Deputy Inspector General (DIG) for the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) Office of Inspector General (OIG). In this role, he manages the day-to-day functions of the OIG, including overseeing audits and investigations, revising policies and procedures, reviewing California Senate Bill 827, assisting with the development of a charter that outlines the roles, responsibilities, and authority of the OIG, and reporting findings and recommendations to BART administration, the Board of Directors, and the public.

Prior to this role, during his 20 years of federal service, Zurvohn served as a Senior Special Agent and Subject Matter Expert over the USPS OIG Western and Pacific Area Field Offices, as well as Acting Assistant Special Agent in Charge. He coordinated multi-agency high-risk task forces, conducted complex and sensitive investigations—both criminal and administrative—reviewed national-level policies and made recommendations. He also served as a trainer and instructor in various collateral duties, including Firearms Instructor and Coordinator, Control Tactics Instructor and Coordinator, M-4 Rifle Instructor, Non-Lethal Instructor, Evidence Custodian, and Financial Crimes Representative.

Before joining the federal government, Zurvohn completed an externship at the United Nations (UN) International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) while in law school. The ICTR, established by the UN Security Council, prosecuted individuals responsible for the Rwandan genocide and other serious violations of international humanitarian law. It was the first international tribunal to deliver verdicts on genocide and recognize rape as a means of perpetrating genocide. The ICTR indicted 93 individuals and played a pioneering role in international criminal justice, contributing significantly to the jurisprudence on genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes.

After law school, Zurvohn began conducting fraud, waste, and abuse investigations in various areas, including ERISA compliance, FEMA fraud, public corruption, pipeline and hazardous materials safety violations, aviation fraud, mail theft, narcotics, and healthcare fraud. He has received numerous awards for his work, including Employee of the Year, Sharpshooter, and two Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE) Awards for Excellence.

Zurvohn has dedicated his life to public service. He served as President of the San Francisco Bay Area Chapter of the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE), and currently serves as a life member and executive board member of the chapter. NOBLE, known as the "conscience of law enforcement," addresses critical issues aimed at improving the law enforcement profession and its service to the community. The motto "Justice by Action" reflects Zurvohn's dedication to achieving goals through research, training, professional development, and community outreach activities.

In addition to his professional accomplishments, Zurvohn is proud of his personal milestones, which include skydiving, appearing on Family Feud, and completing his first full marathon at age 50.
