- Patrol Experience: I graduated from the Southern Arizona Law Enforcement academy. I then participated in a 4 week Advanced Basic academy and completed a 12 week Field Training Officer program. As a Deputy Sheriff, I exercised my knowledge in Arizona Criminal Code, Civil laws and Traffic infractions to preserve and keep the peace within Pima County. I conducted thorough investigations and made arrest decisions based on information collected through interviews, interrogations, video and photographic evidence, and physical evidence. As a Deputy Sheriff, I frequently took on the responsibility of conducting criminal investigations, stepping in when detectives were unavailable or overburdened. I continued as a Patrol Deputy for 6 years until I promoted to the position of Detective.
- Supervisory Role: As a senior Patrol Deputy I often was assigned an acting/interim district supervisor, I made crucial decisions in the absence of a commissioned sergeant, often dealing with sensitive employee issues with discretion and professionalism.

- Searches and Contraband Control: As a housing unit officer one of my daily duties was to conduct searches of inmates, cells, and common areas to confiscate unauthorized items such as weapons, drugs, or other contraband.
