Summary
- Dedicated and driven Deputy Sheriff bringing over 6 years of hard working performance in law enforcement. Passionate about public safety with a strong knowledge of local laws and regulations. Continuously fostering public safety and awareness through consistent patrol efforts on the street, and security details for the community and private events.
- My years of service are not long, however I have involved myself in many different types of specialty training including being an active member of our ERT, SCUBA, and Marine Patrol teams. I have also continued my law enforcement education by taking multiple Street Cop classes such as Interdiction Mastermind and Pro-Active Patrol Tactics and Criminal Behavior. I have also taken a 3 day Counterterrorism / Security Threat Assessment class through FLETC, and a week long course in Crisis Intervention Training to become a certified CIT Officer. Most recently, I attend a week long FBI Basic SWAT School class centered around high stress CQB tactics and shoot/no shoot scenarios. I will continue to learn more on the job and through extra training to grow my knowledge in the law enforcement field.
