Rico Shepherd never grew up with any aspirations to join the fire department.  However, when he saw an advertisement in the newspaper about MCFRS hiring, he applied, got hired, and the rest was history.

Rico spent a good part of his career in Cabin John on the swift water rescue team, and another large chunk of it in the fire code enforcement section where he eventually retired as a Master Firefighter.  After retirement, his entrepreneurial spirit kicked in and he started a bulk trash collecting business.
