My name is Landon Gales, I hope I can make an impact on my community by being a sheriff's deputy at my local sheriff's office. I want to do this to help others when they need it most. I am hoping to become a drone operator as part of the swat team. I also hope I can help as much as I can to show the public that law enforcement is not all about arresting people but helping people educate themselves about laws and keeping people safe. I chose this career path because I have an uncle who's in law enforcement and i have always looked up to him, I also used to pretend I was a police officer when I was a little kid, l used to have a cozy cope police car that's I used to pretend to patrol the sidewalks with, I have always gone out of my way to help people my entire life. I also have always enjoyed helping others even when there is no benefit for me. When I was younger I also used to think I saw a superhero every time I saw a person in uniform. I have worked at the Shepherd of Grace assisted living in Becker MN and I have loved every second of it. Another reason I chose this career path is because one thing you get to do is help veterans that are struggling and I want to help them as much as I can because they have put more on the line than I could as well as a lot of others. Another thing is I am excited to be able to help people who are unable to help themselves as well as keep people safe. I hope to also help other people understand that they do not need to be scared of law enforcement and that we are here for them for anything. I am hoping to continue the generations of my family in law enforcement my great-grandfather and uncle have both been in law enforcement. I am looking forward to becoming close to the other officers that I work with as well as the community. And becoming one of the officers that I used to see as a kid and helping them want to also become a police officer. I am very motivated to become a police officer for a lot of reasons and there is just a few
