I have always had an active interest in helping others as young as 10yrs. old, I volunteered in a nursing home as a young boy. I was always overweight growing up and as a young adult. I had bariatric surgery at 28 yrs. old and lost almost 300 pounds, and it changed my life. At that time, I felt that somehow I should help others at a second chance at life, hence, I am now a FF/Paramedic.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
knowing you have helped others in their time of need
