Dear Community Members,
It is my pleasure and honor to serve as the Fire Chief of the Penn Valley Fire Protection District. With over 30 years of fire and EMS experience I’m excited and proud to be leading an experienced group of fire service professionals in protecting our community’s lives, property and unique spirit. Our district has a long history of service to our community and of working collaboratively to address its needs. Whether this be wildfire preparedness, fire safety, provision of medical services or fire suppression, we stand together with you in making the Penn Valley community a wonderful place to live, recreate and raise a family. Through clear communication and engagement, I want to guide us in hearing and responding to the community’s needs. As Fire Chief I am focused on building our organization’s future leaders, improving wildfire preparedness, providing world-class medical care and fiscal responsibility. It is important to me to hear from you, our residents and stakeholders. Whether at a town hall, community event, public meeting or just a casual stop by the office, please feel free to reach out with any questions or suggestions. Together we can make this an even better place to enjoy life and the beautiful area we call home. Thank you for your continued support of the Penn Valley Fire Protection District. I look forward to many years of working together to make our community safer and more resilient.
