"What excites me about working as a wildland firefighter is the unpredictability every shift brings. One hour I might be fighting a small fire on the side of a freeway, and the next hour I could be sent off with my crew to another state to provide mutual aid for a forest fire. I love that I am able to help protect and preserve the forests and community members homes."
