Brendan Onderbeke

I am currently a part time firefighter on my way to achieving my dream job of being a career firefighter. I have a strong passion for the fire and healthcare service. One thing that sets me apart is my unwavering commitment to excellent customer service and patient care. Outside of work you can find me outside in a pair of running shoes or on the water.
