Why Law Enforcement | While getting BS degree at Sacramento State, joined SacPD as a civilian Community Service Officer and then upgraded to Police Officer after graduating college. |
First Arrest | I made a traffic stop on a car on my second night on patrol (ever). The front passenger in the car was on probation and had a felony burglary warrant. She was compliant, and even told me she had the warrant when I contacted her. |
Best part of the job | The best part about the job is being able to put on a thousand different “hats” everyday. The dynamic nature of the job gives me the ability to be a mediator, problem solver, leader, and any number of things I need to be to have positive interaction with the community, make a difference, and have some fun too. |
Hobbies | I spend a lot of time with my two children and wife. Between gym classes, swim lessons, and playing with our three dogs, we like to be on the lake and take trips up to Tahoe. |
