Spring 2020

In the summer of 2015, she observed the daily work of police officers during a ride-along in her hometown of Peekskill, New York. Seeing firsthand how a female officer deftly handled the challenges of the job cemented her desire to pursue a career in law enforcement.
“The way she was connected and interacted with people and carried herself as a woman in law enforcement is who I aspired to be,” Marriott said.
