Rick Strawn serves as the President and CEO of Paradigm Security Services and Strawn Security Services. He retired from law enforcement in 1998 after 25 years of service with the Atlanta Police Department. During those years, Rick worked in many assignments ranging from patrol to Detective Sergeant and Day Commander over the White Collared Crimes Unit.

Rick started Strawn Security Services in 1988 to provide services of top quality off-duty law enforcement personnel to major construction firms throughout Atlanta. The company also provided traffic control and security for executives. He developed one of the largest resources of dedicated state, county and municipal law enforcement officers and deputies available in Georgia.

In 2006, after years of establishing their reputation as a provider of highly trained law enforcement personnel and at the repeated request of their clients, Rick and his wife Susan formed Paradigm Security Services to provide those clients with professional unarmed uniformed and plain-clothes safety and security personnel.
