Why I’m running
My focus will be in three buckets that will include, among many areas:
- Public Trust (accountability, transparency, communication)
- Professional Development (career progression planning, merit-based promotions, dignity and respect for all, zero tolerance for harassment)
- Operations (revamp detentions business model, shore up patrol, improve investigations resolution)
Since I’ve never worked at the EPSO, I am a complete outsider. I am untainted by politics and choose to rise above it. This means I am not beholden to any special interests other than the citizens of this county. It also means I will care for the troops the way only a seasoned law enforcement executive, military commander, and veteran can.
- No favoritism
- No vendettas
- No cronyism
I will unleash everyone’s leadership potential and make the citizens proud to call them our deputies.
