McCurdy, Greg, 1961-

Description

Greg McCurdy is a native Las Vegan who was born February 09, 1961 and raised in West Las Vegas, Nevada with his five siblings. Though he was young at the time, he remembers the turmoil of the late 1960s in Las Vegas and the local Civil Rights Movement.

Growing up, McCurdy loved playing baseball but also mowed lawns and worked at the McDonald's restaurant on Bonanza Street. At the age of 22, in 1983, he joined the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.

After thirty years, in the fall of 2013, McCurdy announced his retirement to pursue another career in corporate security. His leadership position overseeing the Homeland Security and Law Enforcement Investigations Group at the Metropolitan Police Department provided him with a solid foundation for his next career steps.
