Marissa Abbott’s dream of becoming a law enforcement officer started early on with a profound admiration for her uncle. Marissa’s uncle shared his vast knowledge and job experiences with her over ride-a-longs, and those experiences solidified her decision to study criminal justice during her college career.

In this episode, we uncover what gives Marissa the desire to protect, and we hear why she believes it’s so essential to becoming a member of the community you protect. We touch on the academy, the training it took to become an officer and the many aspects of policing today.

Hear how a few years of experience in the force have shown Marissa the power of compassion and empathy; furthermore, hear us discuss how when responding to crisis, so often individuals just need someone to listen and love.
