In your own words, how does your job impact your Wing, Group or Squadron mission?
My job impacts the 23rd Wing by having a group of motivated professionals on standby at a moment's notice to provide quality fire and emergency service to its customers. Whether answering the cry for help or protecting one's property, I get a sense of fulfillment unlike any other career field.

What is your most memorable Air Force experience?
Helping a fellow trainee that was having a difficult time in Basic Military Training to make it through the course and having him say, "Thanks, I wouldn't have made it if not for your help." That will stay with me throughout my career.

What is your Air Force goal?
My goal is to challenge myself to be the best in whatever I set my mind to.
