Post 2 of 2. While I love visiting during National Police Week each May, I also enjoy these quiet times when the Memorial is more serene. I am honored to have had that opportunity just last week while attending a conference for #TheIACP. #NobleProfession #NLEOMF

This year, I had the opportunity to visit the museum again, and witnessed my uniform on display alongside other International Association of Chiefs of Police President’s uniforms and memorabilia. What an honor! Post 2 of 4

Since my agency earned the #TrustBuildingCampaign award last October after my initial visit and uniform presentation, I added the TRUST pin to my uniform during this recent visit. Post 3 of 4

My hope is that, among the thousands of visitors to the museum each year, it will be a conversation starter where trust in policing can be discussed, debated, learned, and practiced among police professionals across the globe. #Honored #ShapingTheFutureOfThePolicingProfession

In September of 2023, as President of #TheIACP, I had the opportunity to present my #ThomasvillePoliceDepartment uniform to the President/Director General of the #CentralPoliceUniversity in Taiwan for display in the World Police Museum. Post 1 of 4

During a recent #IACP trip I was happy to stand with the Director General of the Taiwan #NationalPoliceAgency and represent Special Olympics North Carolina during their #LETR in Taipei! #SONC

The updated Code of Ethics was announced at the The IACP 2024 conference!

Honored to be asked by President Ken Walker to serve alongside him and the Board as Parliamentarian for the 2024-2025 The IACP Year! #ShapingTheFutureOfThePolicingProfession

One of the great parts of the The IACP Conference is meeting with friends who have a collective focus on improving the profession. It’s not uncommon that challenge coins become a part of those relationships, and it’s wonderful to add these to my collection!

Had a great time at the NC Association of Chiefs of Police conference this week seeing the great work being done by dedicated public safety professionals. One of the highlights was hearing great insights on leadership from Paul Butler !Thanks Extra Duty Solutions for sponsoring this important session!

Thanks to The IACP 3rd VP Col. Matt Packard for your kind note and coin, and for your hard work and dedication to the IACP, our profession and your agency. I’m looking forward to see your leadership continue to make great strides for the Association!

I appreciate the opportunity to, once again, teach at NC State University’s Law Enforcement Executive Development Program and help the next generation of police leaders learn more about #Leadership, #CommunityService, #CommunityPolicing, taking care of staff and more! ncsu

After being appointed in 2024 for a term that began January, 2025, I attended my first #CALEA Meeting as a Commissioner earlier this month in Garden Grove, CA. It is such an honor to serve in this role!

Last week the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office SWAT Unit hosted a 50th Anniversary celebration. SWAT members from past and present came together for a great time of food, fellowship, and friendship, meeting new members and reconnecting with partners from years past.

It’s always a great day to visit with my good friend Paul Butler, but when he comes to present to your team about excellence in leadership and weaves in his stories, wisdom, and wit, it’s an AWESOME day!

Recently I had the opportunity to attend and present The IACP #TrustBuildingCampaign during the SCSA summer conference in Myrtle Beach. It was a great opportunity to engage the Sheriffs and their staff to provide meaningful ways to enhance trust in their communities.

The IACP extends our gratitude to Chief John Letteney for sharing our Trust Building Campaign. This campaign offers law enforcement agencies a framework to strengthen community trust, increase transparency & promote accountability. Agencies that join the campaign pledge to implement

Last week the International Association of Chiefs of Police Board of Directors met in Vancouver, BC, Canada for its Summer Meeting. It’s both a great challenge and opportunity to work together to address the issues faced by our profession around the world. The IACP

Great to see my FBINAA, Inc. Session #248 classmate and friend Chief Robert Bage, who is also the President of the Florida Police Chiefs Association, at the The IACP Board of Directors meeting last week. Thanks for the great coin!

I always appreciate and enjoy the opportunity to head back to the FBI Academy in Quantico, VA to engage the students and represent the The IACP. The last time I walked across this stage was when I graduated from FBINAA, Inc. Session #248 in 2013!
