She was the only female to graduate from her Police Academy during a time when women were just starting to be welcomed into law enforcement. It was her biggest challenge to graduate from the academy and then work alongside full time officers for all those years. Being a Reserve Officer, Cheryl had the distinct advantage of viewing police work from both sides; as a civilian and a police officer.
Cheryl, her older brother and her younger sister were raised by their single father in Baton Rouge, Louisiana in the late 60's and 70's when it was unheard of to not have a mom in the household. She learned to be independent and gained confidence and strength from her Dad.
She is now retired from the Police Department and resides in Southern California. She has two daughters and two granddaughters. She loves animals and now owns her own Mobile Pet Grooming Business!view less
