## Resource

My friend Lina Montopoli joined the show to talk about her fire career starting with a Forest Service District crew and working her way to the Lolo Hotshots. She eventually transitioned off the shot crew working her way through college and finishing school as a Physician Assistance, PA for short. We talked old fire stories, strong work ethic, and how fire can help prepare you for challenges in life outside of fire. Tune in to hear the whole story.
