• Currently supervise 4 staff who supervise youth performing
community service and restitution work as ordered by Judicial
Officers.

changes, equipment purchases and train staff in security
procedures. I also liaison with Summit County Sheriff’s Deputies
who provide a uniform security presence at the court. Oversee

make periodic rounds to ensure procedures are being followed
and develop ideas for improvements.

declined an offer to take this position full time.
• Previously served as the Disproportionate Minority Contact
(DMC) Coordinator from 2006 to mid 2012. In this assignment I
developed a committee approach with community groups and
citizens to address the over representation of minorities in the
Juvenile Court System. I oversaw an assessment of the system
and helped develop strategies to improve the situation. In

and Delinquency Prevention for our efforts and recognized as a
model program.
• Previously was assigned as the Coordinator of the Juvenile
Detention Alternatives Initiative (JDAI) of the Annie Casey
Foundation. In this role I met with numerous foundation

the initiative. Significant accomplishments were the development
of a Risk Assessment Instrument (RAI) for youth brought to
detention. This allowed a standardized basis for admission or
release of youth. The initiative required 9 committees targeted to
different components of the initiative. During my time in this
position a detention alternative for youth was devised that
reduced detention admissions by 23%. After 2 years in the
program our Judge was asked to speak at the National
