I am a graduate of the United States Marine Corps Officer Candidate School as well as Oakland Community College, with an Associate of Arts in Law Enforcement, and Michigan State University with a Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice. I attended Oakland Police Academy in Auburn Hills, MI, pre-service, graduating in 1984. After a short stint of working police patrol part-time for two local departments I was hired full time by Beverly Hills Department of Public Safety (DPS) where I provided emergency services in law enforcement, fire response and emergency medical response for over thirty years. Five of these years were in direct supervision of emergency response personnel, as a patrol sergeant. After being promoted to lieutenant in 2005 administrative responsibilities were added to the emergency response and supervisory duties. After 30 years of service with Beverly Hills DPS I retired as a lieutenant and joined Jane Doe Investigations in Commerce Michigan where I currently work individually and in teams to perform fraud investigations and multiple types of covert surveillance. I volunteer for multiple local charities and am active in the community.
