Message from the Chief of Police

I am honored to serve as Chief of Police of the Cal State East Bay University Police Department.  I am proud to be part of a dedicated UPD staff that works hard and is dedicated to provide a safe and secure environment for our students, faculty, staff and visitors.   

It is my job to assure everyone that  the UPD staff practices a collaborative approach to policing that is open to creative ideas put forth by the student community, faculty and staff, and one that is gender-neutral, and free of bias.  Part of our mission is to be transparent, accountable and practice community policing as referenced in The President’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing

In light of recent events in our country, I want to reiterate that UPD stands against police brutality and injustice in all forms. We seek to promote an inclusive environment that is based on equality for ALL members of our community. I expect UPD staff to be advocates for social justice and we will continue to protect the safety and constitutional rights of our community members. 

Thank you for visiting our website.  I invite you to familiarize yourself with the UPD, our mission and commitment to the entire campus community.  On behalf of the entire UPD staff, we are committed to earning your trust and appreciate your support.
