  I am a wildfire technology, prescribed fire and wildfire fuels management specialist, based in Chico, California. I have been working at the intersection of wildfire and GIS since 1995, when I got started in fire and forestry, working seasonally with timber marking crews in Lassen National Forest near my hometown. I got hooked on fire after a couple winters burning house-sized piles of logging slash and working on the district hand crew. I was taking geography classes at Chico State and kind of just fell into fire mapping and wildfire intel right at a time when we started bring computers and plotters out to fire camps to make maps onsite. I’ve been making maps and working wildfires ever since — over 20 seasons working in the Planning Section of Incident Management Teams on some of the largest wildfires across the west. My wife Erika and I started our own wildfire mapping and consulting company, Deer Creek Resources in 2011. The next six years were marked by a historic drought and a huge increase in the amount of acres and structures burned per year. Working the night shift, helping map the carnage of the 2015 Valley Fire, in Lake County, while DCR's crews were supporting 4 other ongoing large fires, I realized we wouldn’t survive as a family if we kept up such an intense enterprise. We sold DCR to another Chico, California wildfire contractor, Firestorm Wildland Fire Suppression, Inc, in 2017. I pivoted out of DCR's day-to-day operations after the 2018 Camp Fire, but recently stepped back into as Director, leading DCR's prescribed fire and wildfire resilience initiatives. In 2021, during the Dixie and Caldor Fires, Erika and I started a new wildfire media venture, The Lookout. Much of the work we are doing on the Lookout is packaged into our Wildfire Intel Livestreams on The Lookout YouTube Channel. http://youtube.com/TheLookout1 The Lookout
