My name is Rob. I am an Eastern Orthodox Christian, a 21 year veteran volunteer firefighter and a social worker. I have a Bachelor Degree in Psychology with a minor in History (Iowa State University 1994). I also have a Maters Degree in Organizational Leadership (Southern Christian University now Amridge University 2004).

My Interests

 * Firefighting I have been a volunteer firefighter since 1995. I have certification as a Firefighter I, training at the Firefighter II level, and am a certified Fire Service Instructor. I have broad experience in Engine Company and Truck Company Operation, as well as Squad/Rescue Operations. I am currently the lead training officer in my department.
 * Hunting, Fishing, Camping I enjoy time in the outdoors. I have been hunting, fishing and camping since I was a child and have learned many skills.
 * Homesteading I live on a 5.5 acre homestead raising small farm animals, and maintaining a large garden and pastures.
 * Eastern Orthodox Christianity I am a member of the Antiochian Eastern Orthodox Church in the United States.
 * Wildlife conservation I am particularly interested in conservation of wild land habitat that promotes the sustainability of Ring-necked Pheasant, Quail, Morning Doves and White-tailed Deer as well as the general sustainability of habitats that improve water quality and limit the negative impacts of farm run off.
 * Computer use I am a daily user of Microsoft Windows, ChromeOS and Android operating systems. I do not know coding, but have a significant knowledge of day to day use of these systems.

Contributions
I want to be able to contribute to the community in the areas of Fire Service information, especially related to operations and training. In addition I hope to be able to provide some input related to my other areas of interest as appropriate. Finally I hope to be able to do some general readability editing when there appear to be such issues that need to be corrected.
