It is important for the person you elect as Sheriff to have a firm foundation within law enforcement. Years of experience show not only emotional maturity but develops the level-headedness needed to make fair and impartial decisions.

In law enforcement, you are always learning. Going to trainings and improving your skills is vital for a healthy and strong department. It is important for me, to not only focus on my training but the department as a whole. We want a department that is highly skilled and has the knowledge to effectively perform their duties. As Sheriff I will continue to make training a priority to ensure we provide the best service to Frontier County.
