Southwest Washington County Fired Department
About Me:
I am married with two grown children, a girl and a boy. My wife manages a local Credit Union. My daughter has her masters degree and lives in the Denver area. My son is currently on a hire list and going through a background check to be hired on a career department. I got into the fire service on a small volunteer department in eastern Colorado, moved to a small town without a fire district. After a while people in the area got together and went through the process to get a fire district started. I've been hooked ever since. I started testing for career departments and almost three years ago was hire at West Metro Fire Rescue in Lakewood, Colorado.

Why I Joined Fire/EMS
The area I lived in did not have a fire district, so we started one. If you have every witnessed the smile that comes on the faces of the people you have helped, you know why I stay in the fire service.
