Welcomes

HBI Security New Officer

e are delighted to welcome to our newest
HBI Security officer, Henderson Dottsin.
WEveryone we talk with has been VERY impressed
with him…especially with his practice of stepping out of the
gatehouse door to greet almost everyone coming into the
neighborhood. And he has already saved the Association
thousands of dollars in damages to our entryway from
oversized trucks by preventing them from attempting to enter
an area too small for their trucks to fit…which they regularly
attempt to do because their phone told them to!

Officer Dottsin has a long history of exemplary private
security experience and brings a sound understanding of
security principles to the job. He has extensive operational
security experience that enables him to safely assess,
engage, contain and de-escalate situations as they arise and
to detect suspicious persons or activity in the neighborhood.
His work in providing personal security and protection
for high-profile and VIP clients gives him the experience,
skills and understanding of the job to work effectively with
everyone in our neighborhood. HB
