- About Me:
- Well let me see here....I have been involved in the volunteer fire service since 2000 and became an EMT in 2001. I was asked to join my current department in 2001 and have been ther ever since. I left District # 4 in 2005 because running with 2 departments was so stressful and it was taking a toll on me. I am the Association President of the Glenoma Firefighters Assoc. and I am the grant writer for the department.
As far as my personal life....I currently live in Morton but remodeling an apartment in Glenoma. I work casual part time as an NAC at the local hospital but am wanting to go back to school and get my AA as a Paramedic. I am the proud mother of 2 cats (yes I said cats) and outside the department enjoying spending time with family and friends.
