Troop K
 Tpr. Lysonia Holder
Contact Information Phone: (845) 677-7378 Counties in Patrol Area: Columbia, Dutchess, Putnam, Westchester Hi, my name is LySonia Holder. I’ve been a New York State Trooper for 6 years. During those six years, I’ve done roadwork, participated in an undercover operation, a wiretap detail, and am presently recruiting for Troop K. Prior to becoming a New York State Trooper I was as a case worker on Long Island, New York and worked primarily from behind a desk or on a computer. Working as a Trooper has given me the opportunity to be hands on with my approach. I am able to meet and talk with people from all walks of life including; politicians, celebrities, students and community leaders. I plan on studying for the sergeant’s exam and as a supervisor hope to utilize the skills and training that I have learned on the job to assist troopers in their job performance and career path. This has been a great career choice for me and the opportunities seem endless.
