I am excited to have the opportunity to serve as the School Resource Officer for Wakarusa Elementary School. I have been employed with the Wakarusa Police Department since 2013, prior to that I was employed by the City of Elkhart, working for the Police Department since 2006. I live in the Wakarusa Community with my wife and two children who attend the Wa-Nee Schools. 

I look forward to building positive relationships with the students to encourage them to strive for their best in all aspects of their lives, especially focusing on developing a safe learning environment for students and staff. 

Let us work together for the safety of all. Thank you for your support.
