Following the Dream
"After working in the auto industry for several years, I decided to follow my dream of becoming a law enforcement officer. The work-life balance really attracted me to UCFPD, especially since I was able to carry over my customer service and communication skills from the auto industry. My role as an officer in the Community Partnerships Unit is to help set the standard of service and care that the community deserves and I do my best to make every interaction as educational and positive as possible. The support I receive from both the police department and university help me accomplish that mission."
