In 1989, Rob began his career volunteering for the City of Chinook, WA. Rob attended University of Washington’s Paramedic Training Program in 1991 and graduated from Class #18.
After acquiring his paramedic certification, Rob worked 4 years at the Long Beach Fire Department then Evergreen Medic One for more than 6 years. In 2003, he joined the Shoreline Fire Department.
During his career at Shoreline he held the rank of Firefighter/Paramedic for 19 years and was a Driver/Engineer for the last 8 years.
He has trained and mentored countless firefighters on their Engine, Tractor, and Tiller books.
Rob’s laid back demeanor on calls and in the fire station brought a calm to any stressful situation.
We wish you the best of luck with your retirement Driver/Engineer Wirkkala.
