Communications and Community Engagement Co-op; BC Wildfire Service
It has been an amazing 8 months working with BC Wildfire Service. I attended several events with my colleagues. It’s impressive to talk with a lot of people about wildfire and campfire ban. I also helped to translate the campfire pamphlet to Mandarin to engage more people at the Richmond Night Market and Surrey Fusion Festival. Besides working in Communications and Community Engagement, I also worked in Plans Section, coordinated with RWCO, dispatch, Logistics, etc. I prepare the document for “prep sheet” which indicates the personnel in each section and firefighters in zones. When we get into fire season, I also did Fire Analysis. This helped to summarize the value at risk in a certain area. I’m excited about learning so much and involving in wildfire suppression. I really appreciated all the folks introduced me into this big family so kindly and patiently.
