I teach LGBT studies and law enforcement at Napa Valley Junior College.
I oversee career education programs at Napa Valley College. I teach cultural diversity and human relations classes for the police academy and teach and coordinate our LGBT Studies Program.

Law enforcement requires applicants to have a clean driving record, no criminal record, and to be able to demonstrate good decision making. A college education is important. A two-year degree is a good start, but a Masters Degree should be the goal.
"Being gay is a sin and is bad. You could not have career in law enforcement if you were gay. In 1978, I heard politicians say you couldn't be a public school teacher if you were gay. The message was consistent that being gay was unacceptable."
