Summary
For the past 22 years, I have been a police officer, first with Paxtang Borough and then with Swatara Township after the two merged in 2015. During that time, I have served in the capacity of Patrolman, Field Training Officer, Evidence Technician, Undercover Narcotics Detective and my current role as a Detective assigned to investigate robberies, burglaries, assaults and homicides.
I have focused on meticulously gathering and documenting facts related to investigations. This requires collecting statements from victims, witnesses and suspects and determining if a crime was committed and finding who was responsible.
