Union County Crime Stoppers, ''Lifetime Achievement'' Award January 2003, ''For a Lifetime and Career devoted to the Fight against Crime''. Following my successful career with the Union County Prosecutor's office I made a smooth transition into the corporate world with Pfizer Inc., a Fortune 100 pharmaceutical company. After the completion of my contract with Pfizer, I began providing security consulting and investigative services. I have extensive management/investigative experience in both law enforcement and corporate security. I worked in, and commanded numerous units during my tenure with the Prosecutor's Office. Throughout three decades I investigated some of the office's most successful prosecutions of widespread conspiracies, involving drugs, organized crime, financial, and white-collar criminal activity in New Jersey, and throughout the nation. Upon retirement in 2002 I was contracted by Pfizer Inc. to direct and manage their security program at their Parsippany site. While at Pfizer I transitioned a typical guard service into a 21st Century 24/7 security force. I also created an investigative program and protocol for criminal activity, thefts, and damage done to the site. My highly efficient security organizational changes added value to the company, and more security to the business units and their employees. I have a working relationship with Local, State, and Federal law enforcement agencies by virtue of my previous tenure in the Prosecutor's Office and my 30 years as an officer, and president of the New Jersey Narcotic Enforcement Officers Association. I am a member of the Crime Stoppers International Association. I belong to the American Society of Industrial Security (ASIS International) and the F.B.I.'s Infragard Partnership for Protection, working on Homeland Security Issues. I am a graduate of the DEA's National Training Institute, and Pennsylvania State University's Police Executive Training Institute (POLEX). In addition I have extensive training from the FBI, IRS, DEA, U.S. Attorney General, N.Y. Police Department, N.J. State Police, N.J. Division of Criminal Justice, and various other private and public investigative organizations. I am currently heading a security consulting & investigations firm. Prior, I was employed by Verizon Wireless in their Corporate Security Organization, in charge of North East Investigations.
