I first started in the emergency services at the Rescue Squad. I volunteered there for around 4 years. When i left there i joined the fire department and have been there ever since. I started as a firefighter and worked my way up through the ranks to Lt., Captain, Asst. Chief and now as Fire Chief. I have also recently joined back with Rescue several months ago. I have a great group of Officers and firefighters under me and we are working to achieve the ultimate goals of the fire department.
