Summary
With over 12 years in the fire service, including 8 as a professional firefighter at Council Bluffs Fire Department, I bring a wealth of experience and a robust skill set, including leading training academies and preforming as a Rescue Specialist for Nebraska Task Force 1. My dedication to being a student of the fire service with my hands on experience, extensive training, and time spent teaching others has put me in a position to be able to give some of the knowledge I have acquired throughout my career.
