Donte Jones

Public Affairs Deputy – Pulaski County Sheriff’s Office
My name is Donte Jones, and I serve as the Public Affairs Deputy for the Pulaski County Sheriff’s Office. In my role, I focus on storytelling, digital communication, and community engagement, using media to bridge the gap between law enforcement and the people we serve. I highlight the work of deputies, spotlight community partnerships, and help create content that strengthens trust throughout Pulaski County. Outside of PCSO, I’m a creator who enjoys producing social-media content, podcasts, and projects that spark real conversations. Whether I’m behind the camera at local events or speaking on a stage or a mic, I aim to bring clarity, honesty, and connection to every space I step into. I’m also a proud girl dad, a dedicated runner, and someone who believes deeply in public service. My goal is simple: use my voice and my creativity to uplift my community and leave audiences with something meaningful to walk away with.
