Summary

A motivated professional with thirteen years of experience with both paid and volunteer departments. Through this experience I understand the leadership needs, and challenges that effect both departments. I am committed to the development of others by continuously growing my knowledge and skillset. I have served as a FTO, EMS Instructor, Fire Instructor and hold numerous TCFP certifications. This has led to me being a part of the training staff at Haltom City Fire Rescue as a two year Firefighter, and a Captain of Leonard Volunteer Fire Department.
