ABOUT ME
Meet Wayne
WHERE I COME FROM
I was born in Brazos County 54 years ago and raised near S. College Ave. just close enough to Texas A&M to hear the Aggie Band playing at halftime from my backyard. Brazos County has always been my home. Vicki and I have three adult children and two grandchildren.
From a young age, I always wanted to work for the sheriff’s office and I still remember the day in 1986 when I crossed what is now William Joel Bryan Parkway after an interview with Jail Administrator John Godfrey. I was carrying a hand full of white uniform shirts and a small tin badge. I had just been hired as a jailer. I was so proud, I can’t remember anything but staring at the brown patches on those shirts. It was the beginning of a career that has spanned more than thirty years and three different sheriffs.
During my 37 year career with the Brazos County Sheriff’s Office, I have served in various capacities including jail officer, patrol deputy, first-line supervisor, and second-line supervisor. On five separate occasions, I have been promoted within the Office. In 1997, Sheriff Kirk presented me with an opportunity that changed my life and my career. An opportunity to truly learn the inside operation of the Sheriff’s Office.
