Activities
As a Jacksonville FD Firefighter, I successfully presented, integrated, and implemented new and revised EMS protocols for the department on an ALS level. I have also, on numerous occasions, had the opportunity to operate as a step-up Lieutenant for my shift and act as a company officer on fire and EMS scenes. I have been recognized by both administration and peers for my leadership qualities, enthusiasm for the fire service, ability to work with other crew members, and effectively pass down knowledge that I've learned in my career to more junior members. As both a Firefighter and Paramedic FTO, I mentored multiple new Firefighter/Paramedics and started them on their journey into the fire service. My love for emergency services and my fellow brothers and sisters cannot be effectively put into words, and I appreciate the opportunity to be part of your team.
