Summary
I have one year’s experience as a Type 1 Initial attack Crew leader and three years experience as a crew member working for the Manitoba Fire Service. Over the past four years of working within wildfire I have fought numerous fires across varied terrain in Manitoba as well as British Columbia. I have assisted with incidents outside of wildfire including flood efforts during the spring of 2022. I am looking to further build my experience and knowledge within wildfire by seeking out new terrain and challenges.
