Over 27 years of State Government and Law Enforcement experience allowed me to grow naturally into the security and investigative industry. Serving over the years as Training Facilitator, Patrolman, Deputy, Lieutenant, and Chief for various department and government agencies provided me with the appropriate training, experience, and certification needed to perform all aspects of security and investigative job duties.
With the culmination of all the above, on came side jobs that erupted naturally for 20 years of providing private security for special events and safety needs that off-duty law enforcement personnel could provide. Pooling my resources together has helped build the foundation of The Marxman Group to what it is today.
During my time spent serving on the board with the Effingham Area Police Association, another side job started resulting in over 25 years of providing and producing firework displays for the local community. Having credentials to purchase and transport pyrotechnics attracted clients of bigger events with larger needs. As demands grew, complying with Federal and State regulations; we are now employed with two major firework companies in the Midwest who provide product for all size displays.
Now retired from the State of Illinois and leaving law enforcement, things are busier than ever. Currently serving as Security Supervisor for S.I.R. Investigations and Head of Security for Effingham Performance Center with a full security staff on hand, we are providing investigations, security, supervision, and consulting for all your security and safety needs.
We can provide all licensing and certification needed to perform the duties and responsibilities required for all pyrotechnic events and security needs.
Stay Safe!
