Marcus Harrison
Marcus Harrison is proud to be recognized for his hard work as a security officer with the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB) Department of Police and Public Safety.
Harrison, who has served as a security officer for eight months, took action during a fire drill that earned praise from a fellow offer.
“I enjoy being able to assist students, employees, and visitors with their needs,” he says. “I became a security officer to help others and be someone who people could come to for help.”
Being a security officer can be fast-paced. “You never know what to expect,” Harrison says. His positive attitude helps him overcome any challenges that may come.
The security officer advises new students to show up, be on time, stay focused, and always take initiative! He’s following his own advice and aspires to move up within UMB Police and Public Safety.
Outside of work, Harrison enjoys hanging out with friends and playing games. He also enjoys cooking and would like to be a chef one day!
