As the first Black person to hold this position in the department’s 52-year history, Cephas has a unique perspective on the fire service industry’s evolution over the last two decades.

Cephas’s time with the department started with a moment of doubt when he saw news reports of the 9/11 attacks on the Twin Towers in New York. As a firefighter, he wondered if this was the career for him. He decided to stick with it and was recently promoted to fire chief.
