Summary

As a prior Law Enforcement Officer in California for ten years, I have extensive experience with responding to high-stress situations involving the need for rapid decision making with often limited or even wrong information. I conducted investigations that involve gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses and interrogating suspects, documenting information in detailed and factual reports, making arrests and testifying in court. I have demonstrated leadership abilities as well as an aptitude to earn the trust and support of those I work with and for.
