Meet Leroy R.
Williams.

Born and raised in St. Petersburg, Florida, on March 14th, 1978, from the moment you meet him, it is clear that Leroy R. Williams — “Rick,” “L.R.,” or “Will” — is a man of extraordinary faith, character, and full of ambition. He has been making a meticulous public safety impact throughout the Tampa Bay Area and the State of Florida since 1999, following his first law enforcement appointment.

A leader in the industries of Security Intelligence and Investigations, Leroy has spent much of his time in St. Petersburg, Tampa, Jacksonville, Orlando, Sarasota, and surrounding areas breaking barriers and creating safer communities, as well as opportunities for others in his employ and under his profound leadership.

He is a source of hope and encouragement in a world that can often be bleak — but through his “Faith in God” and his desire to serve, he has been able to bring significant change to his community and areas of focus, making a positive difference in the lives of many through his craftsmanship

Leroy is a proud father of three daughters, all sharing the unique nickname “Boobie.” He has been saved since the young age of 9 and acknowledged that God had a calling on his life at the age of 12. He has served as a law enforcement officer in Hillsborough County and Pinellas County, Florida. Since his departure, he transitioned into a realm of certainty in Intelligence and Investigations.

Leroy, if not out protecting and serving, enjoys his time fine dining and diving deeper into a prayer life filled with an uncompromising personal relationship with the Almighty God. One of Leroy’s favorite scriptures is:

“Be not weary in well doing, for in due season, you will reap, if you faint not…”

Authors Prayer

Open my soul, Lord. So that I may be a channel to wisdom and creativity from beyond myself. Stoke my imagination with vivid imagery and vibrant perception. Help me to know the truth. So my writing fixation is more honest than actuality and reaches the depths of the reader’s soul.
