Summary
Community-oriented and highly motivated professional with over six years of retail experience, where I developed strong communication, conflict resolution, and problem-solving skills. Through daily interactions with customers, I learned how to de-escalate tense situations, respond to concerns with professionalism, and ensure positive outcomes—all skills that are directly transferable to a policing environment. In addition, my education in the Police Foundations program has provided me with a solid understanding of Canadian law, mental health crisis response, officer safety, and the realities of modern policing. Together, my hands-on experience and academic background have prepared me to serve with empathy, integrity, and sound judgment. I am eager to bring these strengths to the Halton Regional Police Service and make a meaningful contribution to the safety and well-being of the Halton community.
