I would highly recommend and without hesitation, endorse Chief Gasaway. He is a tremendous educator, an excellent public speaker and one of the few real champions for firefighters safety in our business today!

Andrew Salvadore

Helping individuals and teams improve situational awareness and high-risk decision making is not just below his signature line, he academically and using field speak understands it and conveys it to others. Well read and field ready to enable self-realization and ownership is what you can expect from Doctor Rich.
