    Sergeant/Medical Officer

    Langford Fire Department was the catalyst for my journey—it led me to become a Paramedic and eventually a Physician Assistant. I’ve been honored to serve as Medical Officer here for over a decade, and I wouldn’t be where I am today without being part of the expert team that defines Langford Fire Department.
