About Me:

I'm a 19 year old volunteer firefighter from Arvada Colorado. I am currently a volunteer with the North-West Fire Protection District out of Park County where HWY-285 and HWY-9 intersect. I one day want to make this my career and make a living fighting fire.

I have never wanted to do anything else besides firefighting. My senior year of high school i attended Warren Tech, a professional school for Fire Science and First responder. From there I acquired my certifications for Fire 1 and HazMat Opps through my department, my wildland classes through CWFIMA, and am currently enrolled in EMT-Basic through St. Anthony's. I am looking to advance eventually to Paramedic.

I work hard, play hard and am very determined.
