About

Patrick Troy

I received my first P.I. assignment when I was 18 years old and studying at the University of Connecticut. A friend asked me to help him find out if his girlfriend was cheating on him. At the time, what we did was called “spying on his girlfriend”. In the world of private investigation, we call it “surveillance”. Nevertheless, that was the beginning of my life as a private investigator. I became the go-to guy when my friends needed to find out information that wasn’t readily available.

My official career – the one that paid the bills – was in the field of information technology. I climbed the corporate ladder for 12 years at various financial service companies and earned my MBA at New York University, thanks to the generosity of one of my employers. I finally started Bluevision Investigations in Connecticut in 2007 after being laid off from my IT manager job. Getting the pink slip gave me the push I needed to turn my hobby into a paying job, and it’s been an exciting challenge ever since.

Being a private investigator is more difficult than wearing a trenchcoat and fedora, but it does allow me to put my IT background to good use and play with a lot of cool tech gadgets!
