Looks like a great story. If you need more amazing bylines to cover. I recommend those with Fire Department Coffee. They seemed to be moving in the fast lane these days. There’s definitely a great story to be told.

Having done a fair amount of humanitarian aid work with fire departments in that region, this partnership can help boost firefighter training where it is badly needed.

A conversation with a couple industry experts at this past weekend's Science to the Station's Nerdstock, has me wondering if our efforts to remove PFAS will follow a path similar to carbon trading--where we mitigate in some areas while conceding others.

It's beyond encouraging to see this morning's speakers push so hard and passionately for participation in the National Firefighter Registry for Cancer.

The opportunity to present yesterday at the Science to the Station conference at the National Emergency Training Center in Emmitsburg, on a stage shared by so many fire service leaders was beyond humbling. Telling my story brought out more emotions than I expected—but guess what? Sometimes you have to lean into the things that are difficult to do. Growth comes from stepping outside our comfort zones, and yesterday was a powerful reminder of that. #FireService #EmergencyTraining #FirefighterWellness #FirstResponders #FirefighterMentalHealth #ScienceToTheStation

I was hoping this CRACKYL Magazine Fire Industry Education Resource Organization (F.I.E.R.O.) on fire station design would be available that the fire station design symposium. I love the excitement of the start of a great symposium. #firestations #firestationdesign (I got so excited I forgot the pic 🤦♀️)

Great resources in an area that's not as well understood as it should be.
