East Setauket,NY
Summary
I am an experienced police officer, skilled in law enforcement and emergency management. Upon my graduation from the police academy, I was assigned to the 75th precinct in East New York, where I spent nine years on patrol, serving the Brooklyn community.
I served the final 11 years of my career in the Special Operations Division (SOD) as a member of the Strategic Response Group (SRG). While serving in that unit, I received a significant amount of training in active shooter scenarios, conflict de-escalation, crisis intervention, and effective management of crowds during high-stress situations.
