I started my career in the fire service in 2002 at, what was then, a small combination department. In 2004, I made the jump to my current department and have risen through the ranks to Captain thus far. I started instructing in 2008 when I obtained my Instructor certification and my live fire instructor certification. I currently am designated as my department Training Officer. On my days off, I love to hunt whitetail deer. That is my outlet every year. The ability to be in deep in the woods and watch the sunrise is a blessing.
