I currently serve as the President of LETOA, having been elected to that position in September 2006. Prior to being elected President, I served as a director, Secretary and Historian. I have been on the Board of Directors since 1997. I am a Criminal Justice Instructor at Northcentral Technical College in Wausau. I’ve been there since August 1995. I currently am the Faculty Team Leader which is a combination of coordinating continuing education/specialized training, and teaching in our Associate Degree Program and Law Enforcement Academy. I am certified to teach in many of the basic training topic areas and I am a Master SFST Instructor and a Radar instructor. I served as one of the original members of the Professional Communication Skills Advisory Committee and currently serve on the Dept. of Justice Relational Skills Advisory Committee, and the Dept. of Transportation SFST Advisory Committee. I am the past Chair of the Wisconsin Criminal Justice Coordinators Council. Prior to coming to NTC, I was a Police Officer with the Greenfield Police Dept. for about 8 years, and a Police Officer for University Police at UW-Milwaukee for about 2 years. I also worked part-time for a number of small agencies and the DNR in northwestern Wisconsin while I was in college. I am married to a very understanding wife and have two fantastic sons which keep me running from swimming to baseball to soccer to football to Boy Scouts. I enjoy camping with my family, hunting and fishing.
