My <br />roles include special teams, general and specialized instruction, and mid-level supervision. <br />Following a severe injury, my job changed from enforcement to administrative. My current duties <br />are budget development, CIP, policy analysis, and strategic planning. I collaborate with <br />governmental stakeholders, team members and supervisors at all ranks to meet short and long <br />term goals. I provide data-driven recommendations related to budgeting, personnel allocation <br />and workload anticipation. I prepare and present documents throughout the year to the BOCC. I <br />m also a recent graduate from the West Point Leadership Program and NCSU Law Enforcement <br />Executive Program. <br />Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br />My perspective has dramatically shifted after becoming permanently disabled in 2016 . It has <br />widened my lens and allowed me to see the holistic impact of policy, both good and bad. I spent <br />many years investigating violent gang members to now, improving mental health treatment for <br />those in detention and improving outcomes during re-entry. This has connected me with other <br />like-minded local government employees on a quest to bridge the gaps, eliminate disparities and <br />connect the most vulnerable populations to wrap around services. I m a father of two small <br />children, raised by a politician and have in-laws deeply rooted in Orange County. One word to <br />describe me, driven. <br />Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: <br />12
