Called to Duty

“Serving as a firefighter in our nation’s capital comes with some very unique opportunities and challenges. In order to advance my ability to better analyze and address these challenges, I decided to pursue a master’s degree from a respected university. The professors that represent Tulane’s Emergency and Security Studies programs are not only academics but respected leaders within the homeland security and emergency management fields.”
