My Why:
I have always wanted to be a police officer, and my goal was always to serve in the Air Force, achieve an associates degree while doing so, and then get out and become a cop. Working in southeast Los Angeles gave me a front row seat to chaos like I had never seen. Although I had a great time working in such a busy area, I truly found my calling as a sex crimes and child abuse detective working for the most vulnerable victims and doing everything I could for them, knowing that the outcome of any case was crucial to how the rest of their lives would go, and knowing that there are so many people, friends and family, who are affected by such horrific acts. Moving to Texas and a community that shares in our values was something that my wife and I knew was necessary for our family; however, I have not lost my drive to help those who are most vulnerable and the family members and friends who are directly affected.
