PERSONAL BELIEFS
I believe that the most rewarding service that you can provide is service to your country and community. I have been involved in the criminal justice field for over 20 years and now share my experiences with students in the academy. At the internship program, students can learn “hands on” at various criminal justice related jobs and can determine if they want to continue that particular path. It gives the student the opportunity to experience the real world within the criminal justice system. I also stress the fact that you can’t go anywhere in this life unless you continue your education beyond high school and get as much as you can because it will never let you down.
