Summary
Currently a Volunteer Firefighter at Signal Hill Fire Department. Actively going to classes to learn and become a better Firefighter. I grew up around the fire department ever since I was born as my dad is the active serving Fire Chief of my Department. Ever since I was young I've wanted to volunteer and help out my community as much as I possibly could. As soon as I turned 18 I started the application process for my local volunteer department.
