Biography
I have been a probation officer for 17 years, beginning my career as a sex offender specialist with the state of Nebraska. I became a US Probation Officer in 2016 and supervise a combo of crimes including sex offenders as a dual pretrial services and post-conviction officer. I am stationed in Southeast Nebraska but supervise in the central part of the state. I have served on several committees in my tenure such as PCRA coach, STARR coach, Wellness team member, ORT safety trainer, and cybercrimes and device search team member. In 2021, I became the first cybercrimes specialist in our District and due to the success of the program we have expanded our team to six officers. I work in Southeast Nebraska as a territory officer covering the central part of the state. I have been a FPPOA member since 2018 and appointed the District of Nebraska's FPPOA representative in 2019. I was so fortunate to join the FPPOA executive board as the Communications Manager and Newsletter Editor in 2023. My responsibilities include maintaining the FPPOA website, Facebook page, sending out emails and designing/editing the quarterly newsletter. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time on the board and working with such a great team.
