About Me:
I started EMT school shortly after i had my son. Then i went onto get my 240 card..which was awesome! Now i am about to work at childrens hospital and looking for a part time/fulltime job at a fire department while i am in school to get me PEMT

Why I Joined Fire/EMS
there is no better job in the world than to be a firefighter. And there is nothing else i would rather do. It is a part of me. Everything about being a firefighter and EMT and soon to be PEMT is everything in me.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
Everything!!! I love knowing that when someone is in trouble..or even not..when they see me walk in the room with that uniform on..they feel safe.
Top Issues Facing Responders:
The fact that the government takes advantage of people in this feild. They know that no matter what we are going to do it..volunteer or not. So in result we have more volunteers than anything. And even the firefighters who get paid dont get paid enough for what they do. But hey... we love what we do so we do it anyway.

    Riding withdrawl...I hear you! It's been really clear here, but because the temps are down around 10 degrees at night and only around 30 in the day, there's all kinds of ice hazards! First real riding temperatures are in March, and we do a big ride South in April.

    Take care and stay safe!

    I have noticed 2 things in your pics. 1 your lil man is always smiling when he is in his mom's arms. 2 you are a very attractive and well centered young lady. Hold your head high and someday you will meet the right guy that loves you and your son as his own. Keep up the GREAT work and stay safe.
