I am a member of my police department’s DUI enforcement squad. Just last week I received my
agency’s MADD DUI officer of the year award down here in Tucson, AZ. It has been great working with various Driving Under the Influence (DUI) awareness / prevention organizations, throughout my
career. My passion is DUI enforcement, and I am trying to create a High Tech tool for police officers to combat drunk driving. I am in the beginning stages of developing a smartphone application that can be used by officers across the country for DUI enforcement. This app will be able to be used by officers with little to no DUI enforcement experience, as well as those of us with a vast amount of experience. I have been working with the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) so that all of our DUI / Drug Recognition
Expert manuals can be available to officers in the field via the app. This app also has useful tools to help
officers prepare for court. I have incorporated a Drug Recognition Expert function into the app that allows DRE’s to complete a detailed DRE evaluation in a timely fashion with all of the information being recorded in real-time on their phones. This app keeps track of DRE and Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus logs, and has a function that walks the everyday police officer through a basic DUI investigation according to NHTSA standards. The app auto-populates the necessary department forms (in word or PDF) and logs (in excel), and these forms can be emailed directly to the officer at their request. This app will also include educational
information (statistics/prevention/help links).

I truly feel that this will provide officers in the field a very useful tool to combat drunk driving and will give those officers that shy away from DUI investigations the tools necessary to build their confidence while they are in the field and/or preparing for court. This app will also assist officers in adding to their knowledge of DUI enforcement, and can in turn be used to assist officers in preparing themselves for the frequent opportunities we have for teaching classes , holding lectures, speaking at public events, and other educational opportunities. This venture will help officers save lives and assist in the process of keeping impaired drivers off of the roadways. I am a police officer passionate about DUI prevention and enforcement. I am in my second year of Colorado State University’s MBA program, so I have the skills to insure that this application is sound on both the law enforcement and business ends.
