Christian Baker

Christian Baker
Experienced Officer

I have seven years of law-enforcement experience.
I am a Level 3 Armed Commissioned Security Officer, and a Level 4 Personal Protection Officer (Bodyguard) for Apex Tactical Security.

I have invaluable experience working as a Federal Contractor for Immigration and Customs Enforcement. I have learned to be professional in my duties as well as how to be a leader in the line of duty and am also capable of guiding others.

I have a background in mixed martial arts as an instructor and participant with 7 World Titles under my belt. This taught me how to be a leader, a teacher, and a mentor to others and to show wisdom and balance. 

I worked for the Jones County Sheriff’s Department as a Correctional Officer which taught me respect for others and how to remain calm and observant as an effective leader in some of the worst situations.
