Kenneth Carpenter
A great "people person," Kenneth is a natural in the world of emergency response. No one is a stranger once Kenneth is on scene. Most of his fire service career, has been spent serving with the Plano Fire Department. His years of playing football certainly prepared him well for the physical challenges of the fire service. Kenneth began with a solid emergency response foundation by acquiring his fire fighterand driver/operator certifications through the Texas Commission on Fire Protection and his paramedic certification from the Texas Department of Health.Always eager to enhance his breadth of knowledge and skills, Kenneth earned his certification as a hazardous materials technician. Consequently, he also serves on the Northeast Tarrant County Hazardous Materials Team. Never slowing down, he became certified, by the State of Texas, as a fire service instructor. REO is already benefiting from that.As is common among fire fighters, Kenneth gives back to his community on a regular basis. In between all of his career paths, he offers a variety of training opportunities for members of the Sachse Volunteer Fire Department. In keeping with his love of the outdoors, he really enjoys hunting and getting away from the craziness. But, watch out for Kenneth when he's got his paintball gun in hand - all bets are off.
