- I Live: (City, State)

- Years in Fire/EMS:
- 32
- Why I Joined the Fire/EMS:
- I had been signed up for a new fire company in the town I lived in (Venice Center, NY) as a charter member. I was 18 at the time and thought it would be fun to do. I was sent by the department to represent them at the county level (EMS Council) and went on to be the First County EMS Coordinator. That was a blast!
I guess I just enjoy serving the community, as a fire chief, EMT Critical Care Tech., Fire Investigator, and many other hats over the years. I think my only regret is, I spent way more time serving the community than time with my kids, So some advice to you younger folks, Your Family comes FIRST!!!!
