Meet the Executive Director & Board of Advisors

During my twenty-six-year career as a police officer, my fellow officers and I found the most important factor in doing our jobs effectively was having the support and backing of the community we served. For a time, we were fortunate to have organizations that provided much-need equipment, education and training grants, financial support for families of officers injured or killed in the line of duty, legal defense, and other types of support.

Sadly, those organizations are no longer active. That’s why I created the Arizona Police Officers Association. Our goal is to step in and fill that critical need by working with the community, raising funds to provide the types of support our officers need to best do their jobs, and continue my passion for public service.

As a retired Police Watch Commander, I have seen first-hand how a lack of equipment and training negatively impacted the ability of officers to do their jobs effectively and with excellence. This also affected the officers’ overall morale and willingness to remain in the Law Enforcement profession. The APOA aims to fix that. But we need your help.
