Greetings to all,

It has been my honor to serve our community as a law enforcement officer for 37 years.  Planning has been key to the long-term success of the Muskegon County Sheriff’s Office.  Our daily successes and failures are only relevant when we understand what we need to provide, and precisely how we can efficiently and effectively protect and serve the citizens of Muskegon County.  We have examined our journey; our history, specifically focusing on our potential as we move forward into the future.  As an organization we are not only serving our community as legislated by statute, but also through our partner agencies and the critical community relationships in which we are strongly vested in.  We are inspired to continue in our progress and future of our community through our talented staff and programs.  I am proud of the men and women of the Muskegon County Sheriff’s Office.  They have done remarkable work to adapt to the ever-changing needs of our community while performing their duties to the highest standards of professionalism.
