Summary

I have been in law enforcement for a few years and love the job and know this is my career. I know how the schedule works with various hours and shifts. I know and understand I will miss many events, holidays, and functions. I enjoy learning and "adding more tools" to the tool belt. I have been on the streets for many years and I am a experience SWAT team assistant leader. I am also a certified CIT officer, I have my instructor rating, and I am a FTO. I have also been to two different interstate interdiction classes. I am proficient with various firearms. I am familiar with the laws that are enforced. I am familiar with the street narcotics being used and how they are being packed. I am a worker and enjoy a good group of individuals who also want to go and work and make the streets safer.

I also have experience in coaching. I did gymnastics for approximately 16 years and once i stopped competing, I began coaching. I was the lead coach for the mens team at Jonesboro Gymnastics academy.
