Cory was born and raised in SW Florida where he has spent most of his adult life. He grew up running around the swamps catching snakes and playing with gators. Like most young people in his area, he gravitated to jeeping, dirt bikes and swamp buggies. As an adult he took up hunting, fishing, camping and scuba diving. In his early 20s, he found the fire service by accident and has been there ever since. Along with his regular fire and EMS duties, he has also specialized in the USAR, Hazmat and Technical Rescue aspects of public safety. He has worked for Charlotte County Fire & EMS for the past 14 years and is currently a Lieutenant on their Special Operations Team. He is also an instructor in the afore mentioned specialties.
Experience:
