East Brownsville (The Camp)

I attended Antelope Valley Jr. College in Antelope Valley, California from 1983-1985. I moved to Memphis, Tennessee and became a Police Officer in 1986, currently employed at the rank of Major. I am assigned to the Traffic Station as the Alpha/Bravo Watch Commander over Special Traffic Investigation Squad
(fatality & critical crashes), D.U.I Unit and Motorcycle Squad. I received my B.A. in Applied Psychology from Christian Brothers University in 2005.

I enjoyed building a miniature electric chair in Mr. Hubbard's electronics class. We "electrocuted" a doll in it. Remember Ms. Juanita sold candy? She would lock her door and embarrass you if you knocked on it after the bell rang. If you didn't know the answer to a geometry problem she'd embarrass you, so I paid attention! Ms Bailey had we crying laughing one day after she talked about a girl for wearing a mini skirt and stockings with ashy legs. I think that girl wore pants for the remainder of the year. Remember when Mr. Hawkes and McClure roamed the halls with the "board do education?" Lastly, I remember long, hot days practicing on Lawson State's parking lot.
