Since then, his company has grown, and he has conducted training throughout the Northeast.' Joe has contributed articles to Fire Engineering Magazine and has taught several classes at the Fire Department Instructor Conference '(FDIC) since 2010.' Although retired from active fire fighter duty, he continues to be active in training.' He is known for his passion when training and for his commitment to all fire fighters-regardless of the size of their departments-to share, teach, and do all he can to provide them with knowledge and skills.
