Biography
Love being a 5 year retired police sergeant, now having the flexibility and freedom to try new things. My varied police service of 25 years included beat cop, community policing, ports unit, special branch and close protection. Also seconded to work in Netherlands during the Lockerbie trials at Camp Zeist. Promoted to sergeant after a couple of years in Force Projects. Sergeant life took me to Community and Response policing within the Glasgow and surrounding areas, ending my career as a Custody Sergeant in the largest police custody centre in Scotland. My goal on retirement was primarily to keep fit and active, joined my local gym and continue to enjoy my regular fitness routine including spin, body pump, Pilates and yoga. I also carry out Invigilator duties at one of my local schools during the Summer and Winter exam periods. Love my life and look forward to whatever challenges and adventures come my way.
