Hello and welcome! It is truly an honor to have you visit my campaign website for International Association of Fire Chiefs 2nd Vice President. With today's fire and emergency services constantly in flux it is critical that we confront the major issues impacting our service with commitment, passion, and vigor. However, these may not be enough; I believe the right balance of experience, education, and involvement is necessary to achieve results. It is my hope that as you explore this website, you come away convinced that I will represent the best interest of our Volunteer, Combination, and Career members. If elected, I will be a colleague and friend who listens, builds consensus, and takes action advocating for OUR GREAT FIRE SERVICE!

Yours in service,
​
Otto Drozd
