1) age 34

2-3)Career firefighter ridgewood nj 2005-present. Ridgewood FD

4) I have been interested in triathlon since watching ironman hawaii growing up. Attempted to start in college but shoulder problems made swimming impossible.  After 3 shoulder surgeries have been swimming for over 10 yrs with only minor issues.  I like to stay competitive for motivation and fitness, after after becoming a ff this became a  job requirement. Started team firefighter to attempt to share the motivation sport provides for remaining fit and healthy to other firefighters after reading the alarming statistics on ff fatalities die to heart attacks. 

5) current goal is to have a good imnyc race on a short prep with hopes to qualify for kona.
