Sager has served as a conservation officer for three years.
In addition to his normal duties as a field officer, Sager serves as a field training officer, remotely operated vehicle (ROV) search operator, passenger for hire inspector, public information officer, and background investigator for the Department of Natural Resources Division of Law Enforcement.
District 6 includes Bartholomew, Brown, Johnson, Hancock, Hendricks, Marion, Monroe, Morgan, and Shelby counties.
