Bio:: I joined the fire service at 16 as an Explorer. At the age of 18 I transferred onto the sponsoring departments roster as a paid on call firefighter. In the 15 years I have been with OSFD I have progressed up the ranks to my current position as the departments training officer and Assistant Fire Chief.
I got hired on my fulltime fire department in 2007. I currently hold the position of Sr. Firefighter/Paramedic (assistant driver). I am assigned to Engine 3.

In the time I have been in the fire service I strive to always learn and improve myself to better prepare me as a firefighter when I respond to a citizens call for help.
