Skyler loves to help people and feels his calling is to save lives. Skyler started with the fire department when he was 17 and is now 22 years old. He is a live-in volunteer firefighter. He’s almost always at the forefront when he isn’t working on the ambulance or working as a supervisor security for the Ravens during home games.

Skyler is my personal hero and has been since before he was born. He has made it his life’s mission to help people and save them in one form or another.
