I'm 22 years old and I have been on the Ashburnham Fire Department since I was 16. I'm kind of girly/sporty and when people first meet me and I tell them I am a firefighter I usually get odd looks or "You're too little/cute/dainty to be a firefighter!" But trust me I love the rush of fighting a fire and helping those in need. I love the colors pink and blue and I love to shop, sing, act, write, dance and just have a good time. I love the Boston Red Sox! I also like the Patriots, Celtics and Bruins. I play softball and floor hockey and I love working out and staying in shape.
I am going to school to be a History teacher or possibly a lawyer. I haven't fully decided yet. Firefighting will ALWAYS be a part of my life.
I have the most incredible group of friends both on and off the fire department. They complete me! =)
I have a wonderful boyfriend Mike who supports me and loves me for all that I do. He is my best friend and my rock. Without him I wouldn't be the strong woman that I am today. I love him so much.

Why I Joined Fire/EMS
I love helping people. My dad has been a firefighter for almost 30 years now and my grandfather was a Lt. I grew up around the fire station and I guess you could say it was only natural for me to join. I love the job and I love what I do.
Welcome to the Firefighter Nation. In addition to the relatively cool videos and fire scene photos, there are numerous groups, discussions and chat available.
If you have never had the opportunity, take a minute to explore firefighterclosecalls.com and the secret list. This is a wonderful web site to explore and learn from the mistakes of others. It is also, sadly, a roll call of those whom have made the ultimate sacrifice, in their service to their communities.
We have all joined the Public Safety Community for a variety of our personal reasons. Some of us are paid, while others volunteer. Many are firefighters, while others enjoy the EMS side of the house. We have active firefighters, line officers, chiefs, administrative officers, and a number of old timers who have seen most of the mistakes already made at least once. We have firefighters with many many years of experience, and others that, well, don’t. All are welcome here in The Nation. We welcome your input, just as we hope that you learn from the experiences of others.
Personally, I have 31 years service to the local fire department. I have held most line officer positions, and some administrative as well. Now part of the Old Guard so to speak, I am less inclined to go charging into where others are trying to escape. Instead, I choose to monitor the fire scene closely, attempting to ensure the safety of all on the fire scene.
I welcome you to the FFN. Here we all share one common goal.....
