Bradenton Beach has been my home for thirty-seven years. I moved here from St. Pete (my place of
birth) to take a position with Manatee County Public Safety as an EMT. I went on to work for Manatee
County Public Safety for twenty-nine years, serving as a Paramedic, E.M.S. Chief and 911 Center Chief. I
also served as a reserve deputy for the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office for twenty-seven years.
My wife
and I currently run Wildlife, Inc. Education and Rehabilitation Center at our residence. We have been
doing this for twenty-four years and service both Manatee and Sarasota counties. It is a privilege and a
pleasure to serve the citizens of Bradenton Beach.
