He was promoted to chief of police in 2004.

He has specialized training in the fields of crisis negotiation, domestic violence investigation / instructor, sexual assault investigation / instructor, breath test operation, drunk driving, white collar crimes, and methamphetamine investigation.

He is a general instructor certified through the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy in Plainfield, Indiana.
