Presenting today at the 2016 County Engineers Association of Ohio Annual Conference!
Public Information stuff as well as some Communications Strategies for government officials.
I’ll try not to dance on stage today.
Maybe.
Looks like it’s going to be a fun class!
It was super fun to interview Jody today at the 2016 International Association of Emergency Management Conference.
Emergency Management Officer Jody Hodge from the Jefferson County Emergency Management Agency (Alabama)
Why is Jody so awesome?
Yeah, we talked about preparedness, talked about disaster kits, talked about natural disasters…But to close the interview, he said “Aloha y’all!”

Packed house to listen to FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate here at the 2016 International Association of Emergency Managers annual conference in Savannah.
IMHO, I think it’s going to be “Craig unplugged.”
Headed to Savannah for the 2016 International Association Emergency Managers annual conference.

September was busy thanks to National Preparedness Month but October is going to be super fun!
First week, I’ll be teaching ICS in Belmont County (Ohio). Bonus points because I’ll be in a suit on Tuesday!
Second week will be heavy planning/coordination for upcoming IMT OSC Course, PIO Workshop, and PIO Conference. (BTW: Save-the-date – Friday January 20th, 2017).
Third week will be reporting live at the International Association of Emergency Manager’s Annual Conference in Savannah, Georgia. Suit up lads because it’s IAEM baby!
Fourth week, I’ll be back in Marietta, Georgia teaching. Who’s showing the love for Region 4 this month?!? Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
I wonder what my Halloween costume will be this year?
Rumor has it that my friend Erica mentioned me in class today at #3CMAAnnual Conference today during her PIO Class.
So alohas to my new peeps!
Welp, you know that kind of class mention deserves some root beer floats!
Cheers everyone – and many mahalos to Creech for the mention.
Yep, I’m not even there!

August was solid, but September is going to be huge because it’s NATIONAL PREPAREDNESS MONTH!!!!!
First and second week, it’ll all be planning for a gigantic upcoming all-hazards PIO/PAO Conference.
Third week will be spent teaching ICS-300 for Ohio EMA to my friends in the SW part of Ohio. And then on Friday, attending the Ohio PIO Symposium.
Fourth week, I’ll be teaching at Washington DC’s Homeland Security and Emergency Management EOC. Upon return, then presenting at the Wayne County (Ohio) Fire Chief’s Conference on PIO/Social Media.
Fifth week, I’ll be presenting on PIO and cyber at the infrastructure at the statewide infrastructure protection conference in Region-7. Who knows, if I can do it, maybe some tactical training in Alliance too. #pewpew
And ALL month long, I’ll be participating in National Preparedness month activities that you can share with your constituents. If we can better prepare our peeps, we can increase our national level of community resilience.
Thanks to the www.ready.gov program, it is easier than ever to get involved and prepared.
Hope to see you engaging during this important month.

Breaking down Winter Weather Hazards today at the state of New Mexico 2016 Homeland Security and Emergency Management Conference.
Solid bunch of preparedness and response peeps in the audience today.
Even had the pros from the NWS-Albuquerque staff here too.
Great discussion so far, excited for in-class activity this afternoon.
Bright and early, we kicked off the second day of the 2016 ASFPM Conference here!
On scene and snazzy!
Class looks ready – because there is FREE coffee provided!!!!!
Everyone calm down!
Of course, I’m already – thumbs up for social media!
#BringIt
Also having a solid co-instructor is +1!
And what social media class doesn’t include a few redic and hilarious Snaps?!?!?!?
Snapping…cause all the cool kids are doing it.
Tearing up the internets (heh) and leaving no cookies behind! (<—geek jokes)
