I have been a Paramedic for 7 years and served as a deputy Coroner for 3.5. I have a completed the state mandated Medical-Legal Death Investigator course as well as the Mass Fatality Incident Management Course
Aside from industrial growth, Montgomery County remains to have a drug epidemic and I believe our office should work with other agencies in reducing the level of drug abuse and overdoses.
Remain fiscally responsible and increase training within our department to improve on the efficiency of our investigations and provide closure to the families of our deceased.
I’m a compassionate and thorough investigator, determined to provide the highest level of service to our community.
Most often, the timeline when our office is completing an investigation, whether we are awaiting toxicology results or autopsy findings, these things unfortunately take time, but rest assured that our office is working diligently to provide an accurate cause and manner of death and those findings while time consuming are being investigated as promptly and efficiently as possible.
