"During career day in elementary school, the fire chief said something that I’ve never forgotten: ‘When people call you, they’re at their worst, so you have to be at your best.’ That hit me hard. That’s the kind of strength I want to have. Being a firefighter isn’t about money; it’s about courage and heart."
