Back to Who We Are
I began my fire service career in 1981. In 1991, I started as a paid on call firefighter with Comox Fire Rescue, and in the year 2000 was hired as a full-time Assistant Fire Chief. Among my qualifications are Fire Officer Four and Fire Inspector Level Three. Besides my operational duties I am responsible for First Responder training, Public Education, Fire Inspections, Fire Engineering, etc.
I enjoy living here in beautiful Comox with my Family.
