This was my ‘Leadership in Public Service’ class last night. 7 stakeholder groups centered around inmate firefighting in response to LA fires. Some groups were more popular than others (eg. State legislators) and one student got the photo assignment 😂 USF School of Public Affairs #funtimes

Doing some qualitative coding for work with Dr. Amer Hamad Issa Abukhalaf and being reminded that only contextual info from interviews could warm your heart about how much parents will do for their children, even when they are struggling themselves after disasters

Had a fantastic opportunity through ASPA Suncoast to hear Hillsborough County EM Director talk about the county’s experiences and work during the 2024 hurricane season and as stated by the subject matter expert himself, after-action reports are critical to assess for future planning!

I couldn’t have done this work justice without Kaila Witkowski Check out our report on the 2023 Maui fires, looking at it a little differently. Now that’s a community I strive to emulate when it comes to neighbors helping neighbors.

Hot off the press! Naim Kapucu and I provide an overview of networked governance for interorganizational coordination in disasters. It’s going back to basics but those basics are more critical than ever for effective response! Huge thanks to the editors and peer-reviewers USF School of Public Affairs

Reflecting the insights shared from a variety of backgrounds, it’s more clear to me than ever that 1. Local gov’ts are the best 2. First responders do God’s work, and 3. Good emergency management must have collaboration and preparedness Repping USF School of Public Affairs, TFTI School of Public Affairs
