Work History

Armed Public Safety Officer (Corporal)

Atrium Health
10.2024 - 02.2026

Armed Security Professional with years of experience keeping high-traffic facilities safe. I specialize in hospital environments where things can go from quiet to critical in seconds. I’m trained to carry a sidearm, but my first move is always verbal de-escalation. I know how to handle aggressive patients, and crowded ERs without losing my cool or compromising safety. I am very thorough when it comes to report writing as any report can be held up in court.

Tactical Training: Armed Response, Defensive Tactics, Handcuffing, Taser.

De-escalation: CPI training, verbal judo, diffusing psych-related aggression.

Certifications: Armed PPSB (through the state of North Carolina)

Detention Officer
