Work History
Firefighter
Freeport Fire Department
Freeport, USA

- My job as a firefighter is to protect and serve my community. Be a role model to new individuals joining the department. Help the senior members, and be a hero to many families and kids. The fire department is a second family, taking care of one another, and respecting everyone. Doing what you are supposed to do without being told.
- I ensure all gear is up to date and that safety equipment is reliable and ready for use each day.
- My role as a firefighter when I'm not responding to calls is maintaining and keeping the firehouse. Every Wednesday and Friday, we ensured compliance with OSHA and safety regulations. Meaning we inspect each tool carefully and sanitize the firehouse for cleanliness.
- Communicated with other firefighters and emergency personnel to relay observations, equipment needs, and other relevant information.
