Hi, my name is Justin "Chief" Deal. Chief is in recognition of my level of rank in the fire service. I have been in the fire service for over 28 years. During which I have held the rank of officer all the way up to Assitant Chief. As the Public Safety Academy and Fire Academy instructor the proper recognition for this position is "Chief." I have committted my adult career to Public Safety. Not only have I served as a fire officer, I also have served as a lieutenant with Alexnder County EMS as a Paramedic supervisor. I am also an operator on the Special Response Team (SRT) for the Alexander County Sheriffs office. I also served in the Army National Guard 505th Battalion Engineers attached to our unit here in Alexander County. I will be heading up the newly developed Public Safety program which will include introducing the Fire Academy. With my background and years of experience I bring a level of knowledge, skills, and abbillities (KSA's) to the program. It is my desire and objective to return these KSA's to you the students of Alexander Central High School and I look forward to leading our future public safety professionals.

For the past 20 years I have also operated my own construction company as a general contractor. I will also help teach in our construction trades classes. I will bring the KSA's to this program as well that will prove helpful in guiding students in a career path in construction.
