My career began in emergency services and I worked as an ambulance medic and firefighter until I became a Law Enforcement Officer in 1979. At the beginning of my career, I served with the Daly City and Concord Police Department. Being that Sacramento was my home town, I returned and have served over 21 years with the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department and am a Sergeant currently assigned to the Patrol Division. The tradition of police work dates back five generations in my family. My father was a Deputy Sheriff for the County of Sacramento as well.

As a Peace Officer, I understand the stresses of police work and sought a hobby which would afford me the opportunity to both relax and share with my family. I learned to etch glass and decided to dedicate my art to the men and women who put their lives on the line daily to help others. Recognized, are also the families who sacrifice for the shift work and daily stresses of their loved ones who are protecting and serving their community and neighbors. Thus, I have named my business, “Heroes in Glass.”

My business remains small and personable. Each item personally etched or lasered is created to the customer’s specifications. I strive for 100% customer satisfaction. I will work with you to create a collectible piece or award that will be cherished and admired forever.
