Summary
I am a fairly new Firefighter/EMT, with just over one year of experience. I am Eager to sharpen my skills as a Firefighter/EMT, and learn from those with much more experience and knowledge in the field. I pride myself on trying to do the best at the tasks I am given, but also not afraid to ask for assistance when I face a challenge I may not be able to overcome on my own. I have a wide range of skills in Firefighting, Emergency Medical Service, as well as operating heavy machinery, and physical labor. I enjoy working with those that have the same drive and work ethic that I do. I have always tried to be ahead of schedule no matter where I am going or what I am doing. When I say I am going to be somewhere at any time, you can guarantee I will be there. I have always worked well with others in my past experiences and have been able to put aside any issues among my colleagues to finish the task at hand.
