I have been an Adjunct Faculty member at CWI for three years in the Criminal Justice Department. I also teach at Boise State University in the Criminal Justice Department where I have taught for fifteen years. For the past twenty years, my day job is as a detective for the Idaho State Police. I have been employed in the Criminal Justice System since 1980 and have my undergraduate degree in Criminal Justice from BSU (1985) and my Master’s from the University of Idaho in Natural Resources and the Environment (1994). I enjoy teaching because of the genuine interest and energy the students bring into the classroom. That energy is motivating for me as an instructor and practitioner in the field of criminal justice.
