Having worked in the area of emergency services for over 15 years as a
paramedic, fire fighter, safety officer, consultant, and now as a manager, I
have a good understanding of how rapidly this industry is changing. I believe
Menlo Park Fire is a national leader in its commitment, dedication, and quality
in the areas of emergency medical and fire services. I will be committed to
ensuring that this high level of assistance continues. Because this Fire
District has the capability of setting the standard for the industry now and in
the future, I will be supportive of new technologies exploration and will be
responsive to needs of the community. One way to ensure that the District
maintains its high standards is by employing and supporting highly qualified
individuals. They are an essential component to providing the kind of service
we have come to know.

I look forward to the opportunity of serving my community and using my
experience while serving on this Board. Thank you for your support.
