Matthew Marin is a Houston Police Officer with 13 years of exemplary service on the force. He has received numerous commendations along with two life-saving awards, the Hostile Engagement Award, the Officer of the Year Award, the Award of Valor from the state of Texas, and also the Award of Excellence. Inspired by his father, who is also a decorated officer, he grew up knowing and admiring the life of a Police Officer. Receiving a football scholarship right out of high school, he opted to join the U.S. Navy after his first year of college. After completing four and a half nine-month tours overseas, he left the military, transitioning into the Police Force. Now he looks back on his experiences, reflecting on them, while throwing ore light on the travails of military veterans and Police Officers, both active and retired. In the introduction to his book, "Silent Screams," he writes: "Due to the demanding nature of the job, police officers often bring their work home with them, whether they want to or not. As a police officer ... I know firsthand that bringing the job home can manifest itself in various ways and in turn affect relationships with both family and friends." "PTSD is a disease of the mind which plagues more veterans and active servicemen than we might imagine. Unfortunately, many people do not prioritize getting the help and healing that they need, even as the weight of our career continues to pile up." Through his additional position as East-Texas Director of the Birdwell Foundation For PTSD, Matt Marin seeks to help those suffering from this occupational hazard restore hope, lives and relationships, and to help their loved ones better understand this "moral injury" and emotional stress, learn to cope and heal.
