I am a Firefighter/EMT for my home town of Dolgeville. I am an EMT-B/Dispatcher with Rural/Metro Medical Services of NYS. I am currently working on getting my Paramedic Certification. I have been a Firefighter since the age of 18 when I was still in High School. I have been an EMT for about 3 years now. I love everything I do for both fields and it has become a great passion of mine.
All of my family has been either a firefighter, EMS, or both. My Father, Grandfathers, Grandmother, and several Uncles were involved in a fire dept and/or an EMS dept. They are the reason I wanted to join and I love it!!!
Why I Love Fire/EMS
I love to serve and protect my community and to provide help to those who need it.

Anything these days. From the materials in vehicles to harmful patients.
