I worked on a project to encourage the citizens of Ottawa to increase the use of carpooling to get their children to their various sporting activities.

I led a 4 person crew on initial attacks of forest fires. This involved being the Incident Commander of the fire where I coordinated multiple crews and suppression activities. I also trained my crew and contract crews each season.
