About Me:
I grew up in New York and moved to Louisiana when I was 10, I moved back to New York when I was 19. I graduated the Institute of Audio Research in Manhattan. Lived in several parts of Queens for years and worked in pre and post production in advertising, audio/video, and photography studios. I moved back to Louisiana one week before 911. I have lost family and friends due to that one day and that may be why I decided to join the local sheriff’s department that lasted about a year until the new sheriff was elected. I was pushed out of my job. I lost interest until I was introduced to my local fire department. I am now with 8th Ward Volunteer Fire Department and have been for about 4 years. I started out as a dispatcher for 8 months and as time went by they decided to go ahead and voted me in. I have had the opportunity to attend several classes to better educate myself and have been certified in several types of medical and fire structural courses. As exciting as it is I am now able to use what I have learned on the streets helping others and have given myself a better understanding of how my friends and family members must have felt on that day. I do miss production and New York, I am home sick. I never felt quite at home in Louisiana believe it or not, most people think I am not nice and quick spoken. I’m from New York it’s only natural! LOL I have found a calling that I need to fill I may return home someday but not today. I love my fire department and all the guys that I get to bond with over there. I have made some good friends I hope to keep them.
