I’m Jake Kelly, a firefighter-paramedic in fire and EMS, and I’m building Call Residue for the parts of this work that don’t fade when the shift ends. I share why I’m doing this, what I’ve lived through, and why I believe you’re not alone in sobriety, trauma, and hard lessons.  

•  turning a lifelong stutter into a reason to speak 
•  introducing my background in fire, EMS, and recovery  
•  focusing on sobriety struggles in paid and volunteer first responder   roles  
•  naming job trauma and the “dark place” many people hide  
•  protecting privacy with true stories and changed details  

So grab your coffee and let's get to it.
