Indiana Sheriff’s Department, and eventually found my way to equivant Corrections.
What is your favorite part of the job?
Talking to equivant Corrections’ customers. Whether I’m talking to a 60-bed or 15,000 bed agency (or everything in between), I love learning about their challenges and opportunities and sharing with them the knowledge I have acquired over the years.
What is one thing that people would never guess about you?
I am a father to six adopted children; five of whom are teenage boys! My children range in age from 14 to 23.
What is your favorite movie?
Tombstone, the one released in 1993. I also like the Jack Reacher movies because I find the duality of his character fascinating.
Speaking of duality, how does that manifest in your life?
The corrections industry attracts a wide range of personalities…it is interesting to observe what works in what professional capacity and which situations may require different approaches. It is also interesting to see how corrections colleagues differ outside the work environment. Duality is part of being human!
What is your innate gift?
Communication; this gift serves me in being able to relate to colleagues, agencies, customers, developers, and others!
Favorite food?
All things sushi! Right now, I’m drawn to the ramen/sushi fusion restaurants.
What do you do when you aren’t working?
When I’m not working, I’m spending time with my family, watching movies, trying a new restaurant, or attending one of my kids’ sporting events!
