I was born in New Bern and moved to the Vanceboro area in 2002. I started working as a Police Officer with the Vanceboro Police Department in April of 2010 after graduating from Basic Law Enforcement Training at Beaufort Community College. In January of 2011 I was promoted to Corporal for the Vanceboro Police Department. I served the police department as a traffic officer, investigator and evidence officer. My training and continuing education consist of objectives to keep the Town of Vanceboro safe and to strive to make it a great place to work and live. I have had training in crime scene management, speed measurement, standardized field sobriety testing, and training to perform chemical analyses of the breath to determine alcohol concentration to enforce driving while impaired.
In October of 2012 I became Chief of Vanceboro Police Department. Vanceboro Police Department and myself are going to work hard to protect and serve the community with our resources and training. The department is a participating agency of the North Carolina Governor's Highway Safety Program and also works with multiple agencies to make Vanceboro and surrounding areas a safer place to travel. Vanceboro Police Department enforces criminal laws and town ordinances. I would encourage citizens of the Town of Vanceboro to become more involved in the Community Watch Program.
