I've been a DOJ-certified PREA Auditor for Juvenile Facilities since 2016 and have conducted numerous PREA audits across the United States. In addition, I've worked in the juvenile justice field since 2006, with holding a plethora of job positions and responsibilities across different juvenile justice agencies in Texas. Currently, I am a County Administrative Investigator for the Office of Inspector General with the Texas Juvenile Justice Department. In 2022, I earned a Master’s Degree in Criminal Justice Leadership and Management from Sam Houston State University and graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice from Midwestern State University in 2006.
My main focus when conducting a PREA audit is to ensure the highest quality auditing services are provided at each stage of the audit process. With roughly 30 audits completed thus far and a 20+ year career in the juvenile justice field, I believe my experience and expertise of working with a diverse range of facilities and programs throughout the nation has afforded me the ability to conduct highly efficient and effective PREA audits in all types of juvenile justice settings.
