Political Beliefs

Political Philosophy

I entered the Sheriff's Race after serving for many years as a Police Chief in Riverside County. I have the unique background, experience and leadership necessary to restore the Riverside County Sheriff's Department to greatness once again.  The department is in crisis and needs outside, independent leadership!
