Yesterday I went on my first ride-along with Officer Richards around Downtown Danville. It was an awesome experience and I learned a lot. We watched for traffic violations and pulled someone over for speeding. It was cool to see police work first hand and what the job exactly entails. I think law enforcement would be a rewarding career where I would learn a lot as well as get to help people and also have a little fun.

Next Steps
My goal for this year is to learn what it takes to be successful in law enforcement by meeting with officer Richards each week to gain valuable experience so I am able to see if this is the field I want to pursue after high school. By next Tuesday, I will have gone on my first ride-along with either my mentor Vince or another officer at the Danville Police Department. Yesterday I turned in my explorers application to the San Ramon Police Department so by next Tuesday I hope that I get set up with that program which I know will be a valuable experience.
