About Me:

I am a paid firefighter with Lafayette Twp. Fire Dept. My prayers were answered last month 12/6 and after three years of volunteering I was finally able to be brought on full time. So I am living proof that your dreams do come true. I am on A crew a group of three guys who love life and live it to its fullest. We operate out of our Station one which houses Engine 11, Rescue 1, and Squad 1. Rescue 1 is a state of the art rescue truck and the only one of its kind in southern indiana. Equipt with a on board cascade system, along with Hazmat, Swiftwater, Rope Rescue, and heavy vehicle rescue equipment it is our pride and joy.
In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my wife, my white Lab, and our old cat. We enjoy being a big part in our locale church, going to Texas Roadhouse, and doing as much as possible for our fire dept and community.

Why I Joined Fire/EMS

My girlfriend now wife of 4yrs wanted to join the fire dept. her brother was on and I thought that it was not a girl thing. That was the wrong thing to say! So I had to join with her and I fell in love with it.

Why I Love Fire/EMS

There is nothing like it in the whole world. The feeling you have when you know that everyday you have a chance to change the world.
