aboutME

I bring 35 years of frontline fire service experience to my passion for wildland fire behavior analysis. I currently teach the S-495 (Geospatial Fire Analysis, Interpretation, and Application) and S-590 (Advanced Fire Behavior Interpretation) courses at the National Advanced Fire and Resource Institute. Additionally, I am a qualified Long Term Fire Behavior Analyst (LTAN), assigned to a Type I Federal Interagency Incident Management Team. I commonly provide decision support on high profile, major incidents across the United States. My skillset includes creation of advanced curriculum, implementation of  policy and leading specialized programs; including the FIRESCOPE Predictive Services Committee. I am passionate about professionalism and service.
