Hi Janea,

I am currently taking fire classes in college, and one of my assignments was to write a 4 page paper on "women in firefighting". I am the only girl in this class so I thought it would be a good topic for me to choose from, so my question is to you is there anyway I could send you a few question so I can add you into my report like an interview. I would greatly appreciate it. My oral report is due on the 9th. Thanks again

Thank you soooooo much. If there is anything you would like to add that you think I should know plese feel free. Again thank you!! Questions below

1. What fire department are you currently stationed at? (could you add here if your the only woman in your department or if there are others)

2. How long have you been working at that department?

3. Did the department you currently work for accept you with open arms being that your a woman?

4. In any time in your career has any male firefighter challenged your abilities as a woman firefighter?

5. Were you ever nervous knowning you are a woman going into a "male" dominate career?

6. When going through the application process did you ever get turned down for being a woman?

7. Have you ever had someone tell you that you wouldn't make it, because you are a woman? (Anyone you worked with or someone you knew personally or just came across.)

8. Is there anything specific that motivated you the most to become a firefighter?

9. Tell me one thing you find rewarding about being a firefighter?

10. What advice would you have for me, and other women going into the fire service?
