About Me:
Im a 3rd generation firefighter, I have had a few jobs before joining a local Vol. dept. After joining I knew that this was what I wanted to do. I enjoy being able to help others in need. Working for a career dept. has its bad days but for the most part it is like having a dream job. I thrive off of having the ability to work with the members of "OUR" shift and the team effort that is put forth for the the citizens to make a difference in one persons life.

Married
Why I Joined Fire/EMS
Do I need to answer that, if you do this then you know the answer!
Why I Love Fire/EMS
The thrill of knowing that you have made a difference in someones life.
Top Issues Facing Responders:
The differences in Vol and Paid depts. in the operations of trying to work together to accomplish the same goal. Also keeping the Vol. dept. staffed during the work week to be able to help the community in its time of need.
