Why I Joined Fire/EMS

Childhood best friend drowned at Lake of the Ozarks at 24. He was the goalie on my club soccer team. At his funeral, a lot of our team was there. It was a moment of clarity, through the tears, that my purpose, my calling, was to save lives. Preventing a family from losing a loved one, preventing friends from losing an incredible person...there is nothing else I'd rather spend my life doing. I've never enjoyed something so much as every day, every minute, of Fire Academy.
