I have completed six (6) years of being a certified law enforcement officer with the Venice Police Department. I have worked in the roles of being a patrol officer and currently assigned to the Special Investigations Unit as a detective. I am adamant about bringing a positive attitude to the workplace and handling every situation in a professional manner. I bear the natural mentality of a leader, which is essential for a front line supervisor to hold. I have a vast knowledge in criminal investigations and training that would be very helpful for officers to have as a resource from a supervisor. I am very fair and approachable which is a need when you’re a sergeant. I have established a credible/reliable reputation with my ability to network with federal agencies and law enforcement officers on various investigations. As said in my most recent yearly evaluation, I am looked to as the “Go-To” detective.
