DAVID ATKINS
It started when I was 12 years old and I had the vision of being a professional baseball player. I wanted a batting cage with a pitching machine in my backyard. My parents couldn’t afford it so I wrote my goal down on a piece of paper, gave it to them, and vowed to make it happen. I delivered newspapers in all types of weather for an entire year until I saved a few thousand dollars to purchase the machine. Despite the cold, the rain, people not paying me, I kept the vision and goal in the forefront of my mind and refused to make excuses.
I never gave up.
As a teenager growing up in Long Island, NY, I was always impressed by Ocean Lifeguards. I started on the Long Island Sound but wanted something more.
I wanted to be an Ocean Lifeguard or as my Grandpa said “Those are the real lifeguards.” I had to overcome many barriers such as FEAR to achieve such a goal but with the right MINDSET it ultimately helped me prevail.
I entered the New York State Police as a State Trooper in 1998 and rose through the ranks to Captain until retirement in 2020. I was promoted from State Trooper to Investigator. Then I was promoted to Sergeant and again promoted to Lieutenant and ultimately promoted to Captain. This is where I ran the entire County of Westchester, NY for the State Police.
