As a Criminal Justice student at Southeastern University, I am on a dedicated path to building a career that bridges law enforcement, justice, and service. My goal is to become a U.S. Marshal agent in the Department of Justice, and I am committed to gaining the knowledge, skills, and experience needed to succeed in this dynamic and challenging field.In addition to my academic pursuits, I currently work as a photographer, where I refine my ability to remain calm under pressure, pay meticulous attention to detail, and capture moments that tell a story. These qualities are not only essential in photography but also directly transferable to a career in law enforcement, where precision and the ability to remain focused in high-stress situations are key to success.My career background extends beyond my photography work. During high school, I worked at a local restaurant and spent summers as a camp counselor. These roles taught me valuable interpersonal skills, including effective communication, conflict resolution, and teamwork. Working in a fast-paced, high-energy restaurant environment honed my ability to stay organized and work efficiently under pressure, while my experience as a camp counselor developed my leadership abilities and taught me how to manage and support a diverse group of individuals in challenging situations. These formative experiences have shaped my understanding of human behavior and reinforced my passion for pursuing a career in criminal justice.As I continue to progress in my studies and work experiences, I am eager to combine my background in photography, customer service, and youth mentorship with the strong foundation in criminal justice I am building at Southeastern University. I am excited to contribute to the U.S. Marshals' mission of protecting federal witnesses, apprehending fugitives, and ensuring the safety of our communities.I look forward to the opportunities ahead and am always open to connecting with others in the criminal justice field as I work toward my goal of becoming an agent with the U.S. Marshals Service
