His background reflects more than three decades of combined military and public safety experience, developed through consistent operational work, instructional roles, and command-level responsibilities centered on public protection and preparedness. His academic and professional education provided a strong foundation for his career progression. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice Administration from Columbia Southern University, graduating Magna Cum Laude.

In addition, he obtained basic, intermediate, first-line supervision, and advanced certifications through the Nevada Peace Officer Standards and Training, along with specialized instruction in tactical operations and large-scale event safety. Military service played a defining role in shaping his leadership approach. He first enlisted in the United States Navy in April 1990 and served on active duty until 1994, completing his reserve obligation in 1998. Following the attacks of 9/11, he returned to active service from September 2001 through 2007 and was activated from 2004 to 2005 for Operation Iraqi Freedom II. Assigned to the U.S. Navy Seabees, he attained the rank of Equipment Operator First Class and qualified as a Seabee Combat Warfare Specialist. His deployments supported Operations Southern Watch, Restore Hope, and Iraqi Freedom II, and his service was recognized through multiple military awards and commendations. In August 2006, Jeb Bozarth of Henderson, NV, began his law enforcement career with the Henderson Police Department. Assigned to uniformed patrol, he responded to calls for service, conducted traffic enforcement, and worked directly with community members. During this period, he completed Instructor Development training, the Kaminsky Course, and the POST First-Line Supervisor Course. His actions during a critical incident in 2010 earned him the Henderson Police Department Medal of Valor, recognizing his calm judgment under dangerous conditions. His career expanded into specialized operations when he was selected for assignment to the department’s SWAT team in 2009. He served in that role until 2014, participating in high-risk warrant service, barricaded-suspect incidents, and coordinating tactical responses. Over time, he was appointed Assistant Team Leader and later served as the SWAT Training Coordinator, contributing to operational readiness and consistent training standards. From 2014 to 2016, he was assigned to the Problem Solving Unit, where his work focused on proactive investigations and the suppression of repeat offenders. He authored search warrants involving narcotics trafficking, weapons offenses, fraud, and property crimes, demonstrating careful adherence to investigative procedures and constitutional requirements. Beginning in 2016, Jeb Bozarth served in the Henderson Police Department Training Bureau. His instructional responsibilities included incident command, rescue task force operations, emergency vehicle operations, firearms training, active assailant response, and defensive tactics. He was among the first responders to the Route 91 Harvest Festival mass shooting. Promoted to Sergeant in 2018, he supervised patrol and training operations and later received the Distinguished Service Award in 2020 and the Supervisor of the Year Award in 2022.
