Treasurer
I am recently retired from South Metro Fire Rescue. I spent 32 years working as a Paramedic and almost 24 of those years with South Metro/Littleton Fire. I started volunteering with the Littleton Firefighters Foundation back in 2001 and became the Treasurer in 2003. When Littleton and South Metro merged, the Foundations merged as well. I became the Treasurer for the newly merged South Metro Professional Firefighters Foundation. I worked to develop new Bylaws for this organization as well as a new business structure that elected the current board. I have organized as well as worked many of the fundraising events to raise money for this amazing Foundation. I just stepped down as Treasurer and currently sit on the Board as a Director. I’m very proud of all the work that several people have done in the past and continue to do in the present to make this Foundation strong.

In his free time, Cole enjoys traveling, skiing, camping, and hiking with his amazing wife and their dog Remy.
