In 1983 I entered the United States Marine Corps Reserves and completed Boot camp and Infantry Training School. In 1988, while I was in the reserves and attending College at Hardin Simmons University, I also entered the Abilene Police Department Police Academy. I completed my education at Hardin Simmons and graduated in 1991 with a degree in Bachelor of Behavioral Science.
Since completing and graduating from the police academy, I have been a full time officer and detective in numerous capacities for APD. I have worked 20 years as an officer on patrol and I was also privileged to be assigned to the police department’s SWAT Team as a Sniper. I completed numerous classes while on the Sniper Team to include both the Basic and Advanced FBI Sniper Course training. I have also served in the Criminal Investigation Division investigating Property Crimes and my most recent assignment has been in the Major Investigations Bureau where I have been since 2009. In this group I work with many other tactical agencies including Homeland Security and the FBI and some of my focuses are on drug and human trafficking.
Personally I enjoy riding my Harley, my family, my extended family, volunteering for the safety team at my church where I am able to help train others in the proper use and tactics of firearm usage. I am an avid proponent of the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution so firearm knowledge and respect is a priority to me. I will always achieve the greatest fulfillment in helping others in all capacities of my career and in my personal life.
