Sgt. Michael Krogmann
Round Rock Police Department
“I attended a two-day course presented by Matt Talbot and Bruno Dias on Navigating Hunters and Howlers – Best Practices in Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management to Prevent Targeted Violence. Matt and Bruno professionally presented the topics in a way that was easy to follow, engaged the audience, and were very open to questions. They even met one-on-one with students who sought further information. I have been a full-time Law Enforcement Officer for 25 years. Matt and Bruno are two of the best instructors I have enjoyed learning from. They have inspired me to continue to learn about BTAM and enhance my career.”
