Born in Rockland, Massachusetts, and raised in Fort Myers, Florida, I have spent most of my life in the Sunshine State. I graduated from Riverdale High School in 1989 and enlisted in the U.S. Navy, serving honorably for four years. After my military service, I began a career in law enforcement while pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice, which I completed while working in the field. Over the past 33 years, I have dedicated my life to public safety, including 19 years on a SWAT team, with 18 years as a sniper. This experience has been both challenging and rewarding, allowing me to serve my community in critical situations. Outside of work, I enjoy scuba diving, hiking, biking, and weightlifting. These activities keep me active, connect me with nature, and promote personal health and fitness. I am passionate about maintaining a safe and secure environment for all residents and continue to strive for excellence in my profession.
