I enlisted with the Pennsylvania State Police (PSP) in 2007. Upon graduating from the Academy, I was assigned to Troop J, Lancaster. As a Patrol Trooper, I’ve had the opportunity of serving the community and the privilege of working at many specialty events. The job of being a State Trooper entails working rotating shifts and being outdoors in all types of weather conditions. It requires you to possess each of our CORE VALUES, (Honor, Service, Integrity, Respect, Trust, Courage, and Duty) and to live those values each day, both on and off duty.

The PSP is a full-service agency which offers room for advancement and personal growth opportunities; with over 100 different career fields. So, if you are ready to accept the challenge, please reach out to me via email, telephone, or to any one of our dedicated recruiters, to begin YOUR journey today. In return, the PA State Police offers a tremendous pay and benefit package upon graduating to the rank of Trooper.

As a member of the Recruitment Services Section, I am committed to hiring the best caliber of individuals for the Department.
