Following in his father’s footsteps, Captain Smith is currently assigned to Engine 3 at Central Fire Station, located in downtown Mobile. As a second-generation firefighter for the City of Mobile, Captain Smith possesses an extraordinary amount of passion for the Mobile Fire-Rescue Department and the fire service, in general.

His commitment to excellence and willingness to mentor firefighters has earned him the respect of his peers. His positive influence has a direct impact on the success of the MFRD. He is a vocal leader who demands his crew meet the high standards of the profession.
