Sheridan joins an extensive team of Prime Trust government and regulatory experts from several governmental bodies like the Secret Service and other law enforcement agencies, SEC, OCC, , and U.S. Treasury.

In his new role, Sheridan will be tasked with overseeing Prime Trust's regulatory strategies, engaging with Federal and State agencies, as well as being a regulatory thought leader for the fintech and cryptocurrency industries.

Sheridan has over 20 years of work experience in law enforcement and leadership in investigations for the United States Secret Service under the Department of Homeland Security.

Sheridan started his career in 1997 as a special agent in the Tucson, AZ, Resident Office. In 2002, he was assigned to the Presidential Protective Division (PPD), where he served under President George W. Bush. In 2008, he joined the supervisory ranks as Assistant Special Agent in Charge (ASAIC) of the Human Capital Division. In 2021, Sheridan got a promotion to serve as Assistant Director of the Office of Intergovernmental and Legislative Affairs, with oversight of the Privacy Office, Congressional Affairs Program, Homeland Security Program, the Liaison Division, and Freedom of Information Act Office.

Before joining Prime Trust, Jeremy was serving as Assistant Director of the Office of Investigations, where he led the global investigative mission of the Secret Service, which is constituted of 161 offices and over 3,000 staff.

Tom Pageler, the Chief Executive Officer of Prime Trust, talked about the new hiring and said: "Prime Trust is deeply committed to building the highest levels of regulatory, compliance and security controls for the digital asset marketplace. With his extraordinary level of regulatory and law enforcement experience, Jeremy will be a critical asset to Prime Trust's leadership team and an advocate for new and evolving technologies in the fintech and crypto space."

Sheridan also commented about his appointment and stated: "I have dedicated my career to law enforcement service and helping to ensure the safety and security of top-tier government operations. I am very excited to be joining the Prime Trust team and help shape the future of the new digital economy with world-class security, compliance and operational excellence."
