What I'm looking for

I am seeking a leadership role in corporate security where I can leverage my extensive law enforcement experience to enhance safety and security protocols while fostering a collaborative team environment.

With 19 years of experience in law enforcement special operations, I have transitioned into a corporate leadership role, focusing on fostering a strong team-oriented culture. My tenure as Director of Intelligence Operations and Emergency Response Programs at Levi’s Stadium has equipped me with the skills to manage complex investigations and coordinate executive protection details for high-profile individuals.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated expertise in physical security operations, site vulnerability assessments, and emergency response leadership. I have successfully led teams in high-stakes environments, authored numerous threat assessments, and integrated advanced technologies to enhance situational awareness during major events. My commitment to teamwork, adaptability, and collaborative leadership has been recognized throughout my career.
