I’ve spent years working behind the walls — seeing firsthand what really happens in corrections, and how decisions made in the courts ripple through the lives of officers, inmates, and families.

Now, through Tier Talk, I’m using that experience to help bring the truth to light — breaking down high-profile cases, giving a voice to victims, and exposing what really happens inside the system.
