Hello! I'm Roy.
As a former Army Artilleryman, Corrections Officer, and 9-1-1 Dispatcher, public service is an aspect of the world in which I take great pride. As a current PA 330 Security Police Officer, I look forward to engaging with other professionals in various fields and look forward to furthering my career within the Criminal Justice arena.

Perseverance and Obstacles
The more difficult an assignment is; the more time you have to successfully complete it.
I try to live by two specific quotes from John Wooden; "Don't get discouraged: it is often the last key in the bunch that opens the lock."
and
"Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there."
