Summary

Experienced with emergency response and rescue operations. Utilizes critical thinking and quick decision-making to ensure safety and efficiency. Track record of effective teamwork and adherence to safety protocols. I have completed fire fighter 1&2, hazmat a/o , driver operator, and Rope 1 . In all those classes they have many different scenarios that deal with the real life stuff you could run into on a fire scene or a rescue scene. In Rope 1 I learned different rigs and knots , and driver op I learn the ins and outs of pumping a fire apparatus. I hope to continue to get education at the Mississippi state fire academy.
