I am excited to have been asked to write the piece, Vanishing Voices.

We bring into the light the devastation and atrocity of missing & murdered indigenous women & girls. And start the conversation of what 911, on the frontline of humanity, can do to be ready to help.

Long before I was a 911 professional, I was a journalist working for Gannett. That’s why I launched a publishing company. The stories of people have always sat within the core of me. I wrote my first book as a fifth grader. The school secretary typed it for me. ☺️

911 became my journey because I fell in love with the work of first responders while covering them as a reporter - police, fire, ems, dispatchers. I loved them all. I started as an EMT sponsored by Gold Cross ambulance services and eventually came inside to 911 for what I thought would be a brief stint.

It held my heart and mind for 27.5 operational years. 💛❤️💙This hold on me continues today through training across the country.

The Commverse, founded and led by my friend and colleague of 20 years, Lori Preuss, is the chance to bring critical words and meaning to our Telecommunicator mission; in an international format that can be heard or read.

I am so proud of what she has created. It’s remarkable to watch the vision become reality. Please send her congratulations for what she is doing with her innate gifts to help us all.

Let the journey begin!
