In 1995, I joined my local fire department in Grant County. What originally started out as a volunteer opportunity, being a firefighter, turned into a fulfilling, lifelong career. And now, for the last seven years, I have had the honor of serving as the county’s fire chief. Throughout my two and a half decades of experience working in Grant County, the fire department has remained dedicated to providing residents with quality service — and that is what we will continue to do. We aim to administer the fastest possible response to emergency situations. Our team has received top-notch training in practices to try and fulfill these high standards we have set for ourselves.
