    Walker, co-host and co-creator for the show, is a Police Officer in Arizona. Walker primarily works as a patrol officer, and is currently on his department’s part-time SWAT unit as a less-lethal specialist. He is a defensive tactics instructor, and is on the use of force board. He has a background in over 20 fields of work to include roofing, baking, and low voltage contracting.
    Walker was/is a client of Susan’s and has since come to teach and help his fellow officers find order in the chaos of their lifestyle and profession. Walker is currently in the process of completing his certification through Susan’s Stress Coach Program.
    From Walker- “I have a great passion for what I do, and have poured my heart and soul into the mastery of my craft. Though I have not yet reached that goal, and may never, I strive to educate myself on my work and its history. I love chasing bad guys, kicking in doors, and being part of the Good that inevitably defeats Evil. I love God, my family, my country and my work.”
