About Me:

I am the girl that likes to be in the middle of the shit! I like to know that I was there and did what I was suppose to do to make sure that the person I am helping gets where they need to be. To help them have some sort of life, weather better or worse I am not sure... You will find me at home most days that I am off of work. I grew up in San Diego trying to just survive as a kid. I moved to mississippi when I was about 15. I like it here ok. I have two girl that are my world. I do what I can to make sure they have a better life than I did and so far I think I am doing a DAMN good job. I love my job I enjoy that I have friends that I can call friends and what ever time it is I can call them and they are always there. That is all life is about surrounding yourself by people that are always going to bring you up!!!

Why I Joined Fire/EMS

I wanted to become someone that my girls could look up to and be proud of. And it is amazing that they can! I am a single Mom I have been in health care over 11 years, and absolutely love it! I have come to realize that being on an ambulance is what I was ment to do. And it is also awesome that I get to drive fast and make people move the hell out of my way.... but as you well know they don't always move....lol

Why I Love Fire/EMS

The thrill of knowing the little I can do to help could actually do some good...

Top Issues Facing Responders:

In the city I work in we are being shot at and disrespected to the highest extent. It makes me sick to think that my co workers and I have to fear for our lives everytime we put that uniform on, and all we do is try to do is get these retards to the hospital in a better condition then they were in when we got the call.....
