Episode #30 - Detective (ret) Mike Baldwin, SWAT | DEA TFO | Sheepdog | Patriot

Mike Baldwin joined the Grossman team after a distinguished law enforcement career in Arizona. Over his 20 + year career, Mike served in a number of roles: Patrol, Field Training Officer, SWAT Operator, Sergeant, and Lead Detective in the Major Felons Unit. As a Detective, Mike honed his craft and became arguably his department’s best interviewer and gained admissions and confessions from suspects who committed a variety of crimes. 

Over the years he received multiple departmental awards, citations for outstanding police work, and the respect of his peers. Mike served as an example and mentor to several young detectives and found this experience to be extremely rewarding. 

For seven years, Mike served as the Sheepdog for his church home in AZ. He started a volunteer security team at his local church in which church members and guests (Sheep) were watched over by the security team (Sheepdogs) to protect them against the Wolf. This ministry continues in his absence. 

After obtaining an MBA with an emphasis on Strategic Innovation, Mike retired from law enforcement and joined the Grossman team. He hit the ground running on day 1 and has proven to be a valuable addition. His strategy is to focus on the acronym WIN (What’s Important Now). Mike handles the day-to-day operation of our business and interacts with people and agencies wishing to schedule a presentation. 

Mike is a devoted husband, father, and Christian man who seeks to honor God in what he does.
