I helped with all fireline duties, communicated fire behavior and safety messages to team members, collaborated on after-action reviews and briefings, and helped with internal documentation on fire reports, fireline educational content, and outreach communications. I also engaged with the public and private landowners during prescribed burns to help educate on fire ecology and management practices.
