Bio:
Third generation firefighter that is part of a dieing bread. I have had the opportunity to experience many of the facets of this profession. My experience includes career and volunteer as well as owning my own consulting business. I am a firm believer that my legacy is to leave behind more than I have taken from the fire service. Although I am a fire service Instructor now at a public school I have maintained a close association with the fire service as a volunteer with a local fire district.
