Criminal justice & law enforcement expert with 25+ years of experience helping students, recruits, and officers excel at every stage of their careers. My background spans probation and parole operations to homicide investigations — backed by multiple graduate degrees in Criminal Justice and Strategic Leadership. I’ve taught in higher education and designed curriculum approved and implemented statewide by the North Carolina Criminal Justice Standards Commission. I also deliver training for thousands of officers each year.

I help criminal justice students, academy recruits, and law enforcement professionals prepare for exams, succeed in oral boards, and build the skills they need to excel. My approach blends academic expertise with decades of hands-on experience — so you get more than textbook knowledge, you get insights from someone who has lived it.

CAREER EXPERIENCE
Probation & Parole — offender rehabilitation, reducing recidivism, search operations, and joint enforcement with ATF, DEA, and FBI.
Law Enforcement Officer & Detective — DUI enforcement, standardized field sobriety testing, and investigations including theft, child sexual assault, and homicide.
Certified Crime Scene Technician — forensic evidence collection and documentation for complex cases.

INSTRUCTIONAL & TRAINING EXPERTISE
Academy-based and specialized courses for thousands of officers on domestic terrorism, drug identification, officer safety, use of force, offender rehabilitation, motivational interviewing, and active shooter response, plus a professional development program for my agency. Leading a Pre-Basic Training program to prepare probation and parole officers for the academy.

STUDENTS I’VE HELPED
Past successes include passing academy entrance exams, excelling in oral boards, and earning positions on specialized units — including SWAT. Most students see results in a fraction of the time they would spend studying alone, making the investment pay for itself.

Thank you so much for the feedback Ingrid. I have really enjoyed helping you understand the concepts being covered in your class. I'm definitely looking forward to working and helping you again in the future. You're such a great student and I know the sky will be the limit for you once we get you through graduation!

Incredible Tutor

John helped my 17 year old, junior in high school with Forensic Science. He went above and beyond preparing for the session. My son has ADHD and complains about studying, BUT NOT THIS TIME! John captivated his attention and he came down from his room after the session and wanted to tell me all about how interesting the session was. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND John for Forensic Science tutoring.

Knowledgeable tutor with real life Expireince

John has many years of experience working in law enforcement both as a police officer and probation officer. He provides expert training on Officer safety techniques and procedures. John will give you real world examples that he experienced in his own life and won't just read from a textbook or training manual. He is a great source of knowledge for any current/future officer or for someone who has any questions about the field of law enforcement. Highly recommended.
