GINM Staff

Steve has been researching the paranormal for over 25 years. He brings 15 years of experience as an Electro-Optical test technician in the aerospace industry, 30 years as an amatuer photographer with extensive darkroom experience and is currently licensed by the State of New Mexico in the security field and is a licensed General Class amatuer radio operator.

In January 2006, Steve Kompier and Chris Fleming (Dead Famous) were the first paranormal investigators allowed to investigate the Lincoln County Courthouse. They conducted a 3 hour investigation and captured many EVPs and heard the disembodied voice of a women near Pat Garrett's old office.

Steve has been featured or consulted on the Discovery Channel, the History Channel, LivingTV (UK), the Biography Channel and A&E. His investigation of the Vallecito Stage Station was published in "Ghosts of the Prairie". Steve's ghost photos have been published and have been seen on TV many times.

Andy is an experienced investigator and has been researching the paranormal since 1996. He is GINM's Case Manager.

Kip is an investigator who brings investigative experience from many years in the Air Force as a Military Police officer.

Von is a skeptic who has recently joined the GINM staff. His insight is a huge asset to the investigations.

Mike joined the GINM staff as a sceptic and is valued for his no nonsense approach. He is an investigator who exhibits a great desire to learn and provides a balanced view point during investigations.

Joe is an engineer by profession (undergraduate degree is in electrical engineering).  As far as ghost investigations, he tends to be more critical because the nature of “ghost” is loosely defined, and in over-hyped reality TV, many hasty generalizations as well as faulty conclusions are commonly drawn.

He has several years in photovoltaic electro-optical characterization.  Joe is an Extra Class amatuer radio operator and studied radio theory, and looks to potentially offer a perspective on the interference or synergy on radio based phenomena.

Megan has been conducting investigations in the paranormal since she was in my early teens. She was with several other New Mexico groups before starting her own. She prefers not to use people who claim to use psychic senses on investigations.  Megan believes it is important to rely instead on events that can be documented on some type of recording device (camera, audio recorder, etc.).  She also believes that it is important to debunk as much as possible on an investigation, relying on all facts to make a determination as whether or not paranormal activity is being witnessed.
