President's Message

I cannot begin to tell you how honored and humbled I am to have been selected by my fellow Sheriffs as the President of this historic and influential organization. When we, the Sheriffs of South Carolina, combine our voices and lean on each other, we can and do incredible things to advance public safety throughout our State. We cannot, however, do any of that without the support of our citizens. On behalf of all of the Sheriffs of South Carolina, I would like to thank everyone who stands to support us in our efforts to protect and serve. Your unwavering support and love for our communities enables us to do what we do.

If I can be of assistance during my term as President, please do not hesitate to contact me. 

Thank you for your support! ​
