Maria Brown

Former University of Miami Women’s basketball player. Playing all over the country including  professionally in France, Malta and Puerto Rico, I have been surrounded by so many amazing people and I have seen so many amazing things. the one thing that has always remained constant for me no matter where I have traveled is the desire to bring happiness and joy to those around me. 

As a former correctional officer & sergeant, I have responded to many situations that has further proven to me that being a firefighter is something I am well suited for as well as something I desire! 
I am a very physical person, I love being faced with challenge but above all I love working with a team and knowing no matter what the man or woman standing next to me would go above and beyond for me as I would for them. 

I believe it is my duty to serve others, I have been doing it my whole life. This is my purpose.
