Work History

Volunteer Firefighter

Kittitas County Fire Department District 7
09.2024 - Current

I'm currently undergoing training and have not yet been granted the opportunity to assist on calls. What I lack in field experience, I intend to gain during my volunteer service going forward. I wish to remain a volunteer in the hopes of being hired as I attain proficiency in the skills and knowledge that are asked of a career firefighter.

I've done frequent ride alongs where I performed various live drilling exercises. I have also participated in once-weekly volunteer training nights where we go over things like the operation of apparatus and equipment as well as safety procedures and precautions.
