Summary
My career goal is to move into a specialized role where I can take on greater responsibility, demonstrate stronger preparation, and collaborate more effectively. As a road patrol deputy, I’ve built a strong foundation in decision-making under pressure, officer safety, and disciplined response to high-risk situations. I’m pursuing SWAT because it aligns with my strengths: staying calm, following procedure, training relentlessly, and being dependable when the margin for error is small.
