Summary
A 36 year veteran of law enforcement , with 28 of those years progressively moving through various leadership positions in law enforcement. I possess well-rounded experience in all aspects of criminal investigations, community policing, operations, administration, internal investigations and labor relations in Municipal, County, Federal, and Hospital policing. Management & career philosophy: “It is most important that a manager treat employees as true members of the organization and as individuals. Although the majority of the decision-making stems from the management side, employees should be entitled to make their own decisions so as to create the empowering necessary for the success of the organization. Every individual of the organization is important and they should be treated as such. Leaders should model the expectations of leadership and hold themselves and all staff accountable to the highest standards so as to set a positive tone in the organization. This will aid in establishing a trust relationship with all the stakeholders within the agency. Without a trust relationship any organization will find itself in constant conflict. Major strengths include: Leadership, Event Planning,Teambuilding, Knowledge of Hospital Practices and Procedures,Employee Relations and Discipline,Training, Community Engagement

- The Service Section is responsible for the following services provided to the approximately 150,000 Marines, dependents, and civilian workers: base access and physical security, budget preparation and control, purchasing, human resources, supply, training of staff and officers, administrative services, vehicles, and property and weapons accountability
- Key Results:

- I developed the process for accountability of the credentialing of all police officers
- I was the lead for the Provost Marshal's Office participation in three Drug Take-Back Campaigns during 2011 and 2012 where several pounds of unused medications were destroyed according to the Drug Enforcement Administration's guidance
