I have extensive police experience covering 36 years in law enforcement and the challenges were many, both good and bad. My career provided many great experiences to rely on in teaching and consulting.

For 16 of my 36 years I was the Police Chief for the Boulder Police Department. I retired on April 1st, 2014. In 1998, I was named Police Chief with the task of making significant change in the department. Together, we were able to turn the department around and today the department enjoys a great reputation. The department now prides itself on being a leader in the police profession. The organization is centered on value based management, community policing, and high standards.

In addition to organizational and personnel management, I have extensive experience in dealing with major events, crisis management, and media management.

Since retirement, I am giving back my experience and knowledge through teaching and consulting. I currently teach for Norwich University in their criminal justice program.

Past experience includes the following:

Training Officer and Instructor Investigator Supervision Liquor Code Enforcement Hostage Negotiator Traffic Investigation Crime Scene Investigation Professional Standards Investigator Patrol Commander SWAT Commander Detective Commander Personnel Management College Instructor Ethics Instructor Criminal Justice Instructor

I served on the Colorado Police Officer Standards and Training Board and on the Colorado Fraud and ID Theft Board.

Here's my proof

EDIT 1: Ok, I will be shutting this down in about 10 minutes. Get your final questions in now. Time to go eat some dinner.

EDIT 2: Ok, thank you everyone. It's been fun. Hope you learned something or at least were entertained for awhile. Take care.
