He worked at [[Dodge County, Nebraska|Dodge County]] Corrections until 2006 when he was hired, trained and commissioned as a police officer with the [[Lincoln Police Department]]. After less than a year, King left the Lincoln Police Department to find work closer to home. Still seeking a career in [[Law Enforcement]], King rejoined Dodge County Corrections and eventually became a full-time police officer with the Fremont Police Department from 2008 to 2010.

After nearly three years in policing, King left policing behind to explore other career options.

He is currently a [[systems administrator]] for [[Kiewit Corporation]], a global [[construction]] and [[mining]] company headquartered in [[Omaha, Nebraska]].
