About Steven
Expert Trainer and Professional Presenter and Educator
Throughout my professional and law enforcement career, I’ve been actively involved in education, skill based training, guest lecturing at universities, publishing in scientific journals, and presenting skill-based learning practices and presentations.
Having worked in the law enforcement field for over two decades, I found a personal passion for professional training and education. I have always resisted the notion of “awareness training,” looking instead to create skill-based learning programs that lead to high-level performance and professional knowledge.
