- About Me
- I was an FDNY EMS Deputy Chief assigned to the Borough of the Bronx and a member of the FDNY Incident Management Team. The Bronx is approximately 60 square miles in area with a population of about 1.4 million. Our daily call volume ranges between 700 to 800. I worked with two other deputy chiefs and we worked for one division commander who runs EMS operations in the borough. Now, I've recently retired, I'm a wife and mom married for 22 years with a son and daughter in college.
I'm deciding what I'll be doing in my second act. In the meantime, I'm living the dream in southern California.

I hope you don't mind me asking, but I would love to be able to bounce the occasional idea off of you. I've studied terrorism (especially nuclear and bio) for the past several years, but only have recently found a calling in homeland security--with a focus on response. And experienced operators such as yourself represent a valuable resource that those interested in "national security" do not tap enough.
Best.
