Detective. During my 27 years with the Longview Police Department,

I spent over 8 years as a detective. Our detective unit is charged

with the investigation of all felony offenses which include homicide,

assault, sexual assault, robbery, burglary, fraud, and theft. During

the past few years, I have become our county's expert in regards to

identity theft investigation. I have developed and taught Identity

Theft training programs for law enforcement, financial institutions,

and retailers. I founded the Anti-Fraud Coalition of Cowlitz

County which has resulted in the substantial reduction of fraud being

committed in the local area. I also received awards for my

performance in regards to my investigations concerning homicide and

financial fraud investigations. In 1989, I received training from

the US Customs Service and became a CUSTOMS OFFICER with the US

Customs Service in a program called "Blue Lightning". I would also

like to mention that I have written more non-drug affidavits for

search warrants than anyone else at LPD and Cowlitz County. All of

these affidavits have been upheld in the Courts.

Prior to becoming a detective, I was a patrol sergeant. My

responsibilities the training and supervising of the patrol officers

was also responsible for starting a variety of community policing

programs within the City of Longview.

Police Academy in Seattle, WA., I was assigned to the patrol division.

My responsibilities included traffic enforcement and investigation,

crime investigation, and other duties as assigned. I have received

numerous letters of appreciation from citizens, as well as letters of

accommodation from the police department for the work that I have

done.

While a police officer, I started a janitorial service business

with another police officer. This business became one of the largest

janitorial services in the local area within three years of its

beginning. I hired, directed, trained, and supervised 10 employees

and was able to maintain one of the lowest turnover rates of any

janitorial service in the area. This business was sold in April, 1989

at a substantial profit.

being the lumber transportation supervisor, I developed a training

program for the plantsite's forklift and carrier operators which was

instrumental in reducing accidents and in aiding in the start-up a new
