Rob Ramirez played baseball and it was the structure he enjoyed growing up. The team aspect of the game, knowing your position and where you fit in were what Rob enjoyed about America's pastime. As his baseball career wound down, an invitation to join the cadet program at the local fire department was his next chapter in which he was excited about. Finding plenty of similarities between baseball and the firehouse, he chased after being the best he can be so that he could get a spot on the starting roster. 22 years later and currently a Captain, Rob has found his place on the team. His passion for the rescue services led to a position on Florida Task Force 2 in which he operated at many high profile incidents during his tenure. One in particular, the 2010 Haiti earthquake gave Rob a chance to understand his passion for the Mayday Mindset, a class in which he lectures and trains on across the country. His experience in a collapsed building helped form his own ideas about mindset and the response firefighters have during Mayday situations. Rob Ramirez is passionate about sharing his knowledge and experience with students across the country. His Mayday program has a no nonsense, straight forward approach that focuses on "Adult Learning". Communication is key and Rob certainly knows how to work with firefighters from all levels of experience and mindset. Experience matters and we must pass it forward in order to push this job forward!!
