School of Engineering, <br />Major in Management. <br />Other Comments: <br />Served 7 years active duty in the Army as a Lieutenant and Captain in the Corps of <br />Engineers. Small unit leader and manager. Military specialty included duties as <br />firefighter and emergency first aid. Currently certified in Red Cross Wilderness First Aid <br />(for situations where EMS is not immediately available), Adult CPR and AED. Work <br />experience in Construction Management which specifically requires that the contractor <br />protect the life and property of all the workers on the site. My wife is a Registered Nurse <br />with Critical Care specialization and over 5 years as a burn nurse. Through her <br />experiences lunderstand - as much as a civilian can -the urgency of fire and <br />emergency medical service delivery. I know and respect the commitment of Emergency <br />Service personnel. I have several family members who are (or were) fire fighters, police <br />and emergency communications personnel. <br />I can and will listen to everyone. I try to work from a viewpoint that respects people, <br />considers what works, and evaluates what is a wise expenditure (and stewardship) of <br />resources. While I have specific views and viewpoints, I am not politically active and <br />want to keep it that way. My interest in this Work Group is to meet like-minded people <br />and to assist with the good management of Emergency Services in the county.
