East Coast Firefighting: Fighting what others Fear.

About Me



Myspace LayoutsHello all and welcome to my web space. I was born and raised in Fort Lee, NJ. Upon graduating from Fort Lee High I left Jersey to join the Service. I served for four years with the U. S. Coast Guard. While there I recieved some of the best training and schooling I could have ever hoped for. When I left the service I came back home to take some college courses while I began chasing my dream of becoming a Firefighter. In 1998 that dream came true as I joined the Fort Lee Fire Department and served with Hook and Ladder Co.#3 for almost 8 years. I left the Department in 2004 so that I could become a full time paid firefighter for Arlington County, Va. I am currently assigned to Engine 102. I love my job and my crew is wonderfull. It is so much fun. We run about 10-16 calls a shift. Since moving to Virginia, I also met my wonderful Fiance, Mandy and we have two wonderfull Boys, Landon (3YOA) and Tyler (11Months). My Fiance is a very wonderful sweet person and I would never trade her for anything in the world. And my two wonderful boys, well they are the best.
I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!
