I am currently a Deputy Sheriff for Northampton County in the State of Pennsylvania. I have been with this department for over a year and a half. Before starting my career in law enforcement, I was a Transportation Security Officer for 8 months as well as a Delivery Driver. I am a graduate of Kutztown University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Criminology. I also have graduated from the Penn State Deputy Sheriff's Association Academy and received an ACT 2 certification. At the Sheriff's Academy, I was the recipient of the Defensive Tactics Proficiency Award for Excellence in various forms of Defensive Tactics. After receiving this award, I was brought on to be an instructor with the academy which I started in December of 2023. I have always pushed myself to learn about all aspects of law enforcement and grow in my profession.
