Why I became a FireFighter: I have a big heart. I feel great empathy for someone in need. I want to be there to help make things better for them, to help them get through it.
I grew up in the service because my father was and is a firefighter. I am proud to be following in his footsteps.

Spare Time Activities: I love to take pictures of nature. Especially the macro world. All the litttle details that God created for us to enjoy. I like riding bikes, taking hikes and spending time on the water. I like hunting and fishing too. But more than all that I love spending time with my kids and grandkids and family. Those are the trully precious moments in life.
