Check Out My Book:

Setting My Sights On Stigma: Thoughts From an Injured Mind was written to help police officers with the challenges of police work. I share my experience of being a cop who was diagnosed with PTSD, and more importantly, the lessons that I learned which helped me to heal. I wrote this book to help other cops to prepare for the challenges of a career in policing.
