In 2018, Debi joined Parkway Security Department as a School Safety Officer, bringing with her more than 30 years of law enforcement and paralegal experience.  In 2019, Debi was promoted to Security Officer Lead with the rank of Lieutenant.   As a member of the department's Command Staff,  Debi has worked with Team Security to realize departmental goals and further its commitment to excellence in all aspects of service to the Parkway School District.  

Debi began her law enforcement career in 1979 as a police dispatcher with Lake St. Louis Police Department.  She later enrolled in the Eastern Missouri Police Academy, graduating #1 in her class and earning the designation of NRA Expert Marksman.  Debi also studied Criminal Justice at St. Charles Community College, graduating with High Honors and earning a Criminal Justice Scholarship.  After 15 years in law enforcement, Debi changed careers - earning her Bachelor of Science in Paralegal Studies from William Woods University, Summa Cum Laude.  She formed her own freelance paralegal company, which is still in operation today.   

Although a dedicated professional, Debi places the greatest emphasis on Faith, Family and FUN.  For Debi, FUN is spending time with her 8 grandkids and working on her Morgan horse breeding farm, Keepsake Stables.  Kids and "Kritters" - together, there is nothing better.    

Personal Motto.  Those to whom much is given, much is expected.
