About Me:

I was a medic in OKC for 7 years. I loved every minute of it!! I couldn't get enough, I worked for EMSA and Mercy EMS. I either saw it, experienced it or lived it. When I moved to Ada I gave up my medic stuff. The local EMS service was not hiring. It was a nice little break. A few years ago when Oklahoma was having all these wildland fires, I was just itching to help. That's what got me into Firefighting. I joined the local fire department and here I am.
