Summary

I am seeking the opportunity to be a part of the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation Fellowship, Cohort #3. The opportunity to work with the professional members associated with the NFFF would help me continue to try and improve the fire service, my department and myself. My goal is to leave the fire service better than what I found it. The fellowship would ensure me the opportunity to do that.
