i started my career in law enforcement as a Public Safety Officer at Oak Forest Hospital. Prior to being employed at Oak Forest Hospital, I served four years in the United States Air Force. Currently, I am employed with the Tinley Park Police department and have been there since 1990. I am assigned to the Investigative Unit as a Detective and recently been assigned as the primary Juvenile Officer for the department. I am the Chapter President at Tinley Park and after serving a 1-year term on the Pension Board, I was re-elected to a 2-year term. I have been elected as a Board of Director with the Metropolitan Alliance of Police Union and represent Police Chapters on the South side. I am lucky to be able to serve the community in which I work and also able to serve fellow Officers in the Law Enforcement community in which I have chosen my career.
