Over 20 years experience in the horse industry, from working on farms to owning and breeding my own horses. Have been involved with Code Enforcement and NFPA Standard development for the past 7 years. I am also involved in the Fire Service, both volunter and professionally, for a total of 20+ years.

Multiple National Certifications in the Fire Service, including Fire Service Instructor, Fire Investigator Level 1, Hazardous Materials Technician; and I am curently close to the completion of my AS in Fire Science Technology. Over 20 years experience working with horses both personally and professionally, currently owner of 3 Paso Fino horses.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I believe you never stop learning, and things are not always black and white. Oftentimes you have to learn to think outside of the box when it comes to dealing with animals/livestock and the situations they can get themselves in to.
