Hi – I’m a firefighter and a lot of guys didn’t believe that I could do it because I am a girl and I am tiny. So I was determined that I was going to prove them wrong.
I joined the vol. fire co. in 2004 and went through fire school. In 2005 I became Safety Officer and now they just moved me up to 2nd Lieutenant. Which I am in charge of the one truck and have to check over it after every call or if no calls then once a week.
My truck is the first one out to every call. I love driving the truck and to see the way that people look at you and what people say when they see a girl driving a big fire truck.
Don’t ever let anyone tell u that u can’t to something. Try it first and give it your all!!!!!
