I’m a hardworking Patrol Officer with experience in proactive policing and suspect apprehension, hoping to contribute to the Fugitive Unit in pursuing violent criminals. I’ve done my best in high-risk patrols, always learning from my team and striving to grow. I’m familiar with Dallas Police General Orders and arrest, search, and seizure protocols, and I’m committed to getting better every day. Speaking both English and Spanish helps me connect with the citizens of Dallas to serve and protect them effectively.
