About Me:

I'm 30 years old, I love what I do with my department, it is a passion that nothing else will ever fill and that no one will ever take away. I am currently a volunteer and I'm not sure if I want to go full time paid or not. Right now it is a passion, I'm afraid if I do it every day for a living the passion will fade away. But at the same time I love to help people in my community and around the country in times of need. My next goal is to obtain my paramedic license. That is what I would like to do full time, hopefully with an ALS fire department. I also love to hike, run, mountain bike, workout at Golds Gym, walk on the beach, etc, etc, etc.
