Well I guess I will start by saying that I am 34 years old, am married to a wonderful woman and have two beautiful children. I am employed by the Massachusetts State Police as a Trooper. The job definitely has stress but sometimes I believe being a parent is far greater. I put a lot of pressure on myself to be the best possible father I can be. I get worried about my girls growing up in this crazy and dangerous world but I have to just raise them to make good decisions and it all will work out. I have a large extended family, which helps out when needed
I love going to work everyday and working with the guys I work with. I work the midnight shift, which I believe is the tightest shift at our barracks. We all look out for each other and are basically family. We have a great Sergeant who leads the way and helps us out. I could not have asked for a better job. I have been on the job for five years but was a Correction Officer prior for six years. This job definitely did not come easily and there were no freebies. I had to earn it the same way that Troopers did many years ago. The six month live in training was tough and long but well worth it because I have a job that I dreamed about since I was a kid.
