Also present were, Juan Nunez and Enrique Ribadeniera, two local business leaders of the Highlandtown Business Association.
The evening’s discussions initiated much dialogue on the topics concerning: The Baltimore Police Departments promotion process, the ranks of the highest-ranking Hispanics/Latinos within the department sans the newly appointed commissioner. The importance of officer development and continual mentoring regardless of rank. The responsibility of encouraging and supporting each other throughout their career – never forget where you come from; social media and its effect on future career opportunities.
