I have over eight years of desiccated service to fire and emergency serving. Several of those years were spent as Fire Chief and Fire Administrator in Aragon, Georgia. Aragon was the town, where I was born and raised. First I served as a firefighter, later as a fire officer. In 2002, newly appointed Public Safety Director, Chief Wayne Sanders brought me on board as Fire Chief and Fire Administrator for Aragon. I have over 400 hours of accredited training in many aspects of the fire service and in emergency medicine. In 2008 I received a Bachelor of Science in Public Administration with Honors from Clayton University.
