I am a Technical Operations Supervisor for Comcast. 4 WHY DID YOU JOIN KREMMLING FIRE? Experience the challenge and I grew up around West Douglas Fire. My mother was the medical officer and step father, the chief. I joined at 16 as a junior fun of the re service member but at that time in my life, it was not for me. At 25, I had the opportunity to use CPR to save a life and it was my wake up to get back involved. Once I moved to Kremmling and found out it was a volunteer �re department, I joined. 5 WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT THE RE SERVICE? Learn more about volunteering For the time I’ve committed, I’ve gained friends, comradery, a sense of self purpose, the feeling of doing good and making a difference on someone’s worst day. I believe we all join the �re service for all the right reasons, we stay for sel�sh ones because it is Sign up for 2019 orientation one of the best things I get the honor to do with my time. 6 WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR BIGGEST CHALLENGE SERVING?

Early this year I was Saturday, Oct 27 from 11am to 3pm given the honor and great responsibility of a promotion to lieutenant. The hardest part for many of us is the time commitment it takes to be ready for the call, training, meetings, etc. Kremmling Fire Starion Page 19 GRAND GAZETTE www.grandgazette.net August 10, 2018
