To the Rescue
Justin O'Connor fell into firefighting completely by chance. It's a chance he'd take over and over again.
U.S. Army veteran, National Guardsman and John S. Watson School of Public Service alum Justin O'Connor always knew he was suited for a career in civil service.
After high school, O'Connor initially enrolled at Pennsylvania State University with the intention of becoming a teacher. It was there that O'Connor played football on the university's National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I team for three years before suffering an injury that ended his athletic career and academic journey.
"I was at home at the beginning of the next school year and really didn't know what to do."
