 My journey with DPD started back in the fall, like October of 2021. I had actually been a lost prevention officer for Target. Just was kind of poking around one day and came across the city of Denver, their job listings. And I started working at over headquarters as a real-time crime center technician, specifically operating the Halo cameras. I thought the next obvious step would be to come to the Academy and become an officer. Lindsay and Marcus, badge 22079. So far it's been exactly what I signed up for, exactly what I wanted to do, exactly what I hoped it would be. People come to us with all of their problems, you know, everything that you could imagine and I get the opportunity to help and I get the opportunity to step up and Academy was not easy, it's not an easy journey. But for me since I wanted to do it, it was absolutely worth it. It was worth the hours and the pain and the sweat and the tears and it was worth it.
