Firefighter Ron Escobedo comes to us from Mission Viejo, Ca and is one of our Shift Officers. Ron was born in Veracruz, Mexico but raised in Orange County, CA. After graduating from Mission Viejo High School, Ron worked as a bail agent and bounty hunter. Ron got the calling to become a Firefighter after the passing of his younger brother and the events of 9/11. He was overwhelmed with the passion and professionalism the Firefighters had for his family and others. Now Ron attends Saddleback Community College and Santa Ana Community College working towards a degree in Fire Science. Ron has been with Intermountain Fire and Rescue for 11 months and quickly earned the rank of Shift Officer. He continues to learn skills as a Firefighter and has been an asset to Intermountain Fire and the community we serve.

My name is Bud Sullins and I live in Lakeside. I currently work at Sea World as a full time aquarium cleaner. I risk life and limb just so Shamu and all of her aquatic friends can stay clean. As well as spending my time with Intermountain I attend Miramar College obtaining my associates in fire science. While attending Miramar I have obtained my State Fire Marshall EMT Licence and other certificates. When not attending school or cleaning water tanks I like to spend my free time knitting and ice skating. While fire fighting has always been a dream of mine, my ultimate goal is to become the next "American Idol."
