 Hey, everyone. It's Community Outreach Specialist, Benesia, and I am here with our newest EM Director, which is Emergency Management Director, Sharon Russell. Boom. And we are going to give you five things that you didn't know about her. Good morning. I think student about me. I am an officer in the United States Coast Guard. I've been in about 16 years now, a little over 16 years. So you're doing both. So you're doing both. I'm doing both. I'm a reservist, so I have a part-time job in the Coast Guard and full-time job here at Pasco Sheriff's Office. So it's kind of, if you guys remember the only one, the other only other female that I know that actually does that is Deputy Brunner, and she's the Florida Army Reserves. You guys go back and watch that video. But that's really cool because you're the only second female I've ever met. That's awesome. That, yes. Okay, so what's number two? How did you get into that? Into the Coast Guard? Yeah. Believe it or not, I joined the Coast Guard. I was working for the State Department. I was doing some research about how government and industry can work together to protect the environment. And I'm not making this up. This is so interesting. Oh, so interesting. Okay. So I really, I wanted to, I was out to save the ducks from oil spills. So that's how I got into emergency management. You guys always want to know how we land here. That's how we land here. Oh, that's so cool. Okay. That's how we land here. What's number two? I love that. What is number two on my list? I'm a volunteer with hospice. The Suncoast Hospice actually in Pinellas County, not Pasco. That's okay. But I've been doing that for about five years. It's funny to tell people that we're drug runners, but I actually deliver medications to prescription medications. Gotcha. Love that. Love the jokes. I pick up prescription medications from the pharmacy and deliver them to patients in their homes. Who can't get out to get them. So if you do that every week, which is kind of cool. How long have you been doing that? You said five. Almost five years now, I think. Okay, about five years. That's kind of, I feel like you volunteer, but that's basically a third job. It's once a week for a couple of hours and it keeps my life in perspective very much so. Exactly. Yeah. I love that. Which is helpful. Let's see. I also wrote down that I love to salsa dance. Salsa dance. Which is a little random. I'm probably not in line with those two things. All right, everyone, if you. All right, so number three. Number three. I love salsa dancing. I love it. I love salsa dancing. It's a lot of fun. I got with my girlfriend, especially in Miami. Haven't found a place to do it around here, but it's usually the music I listen to when I work out. Any suggestions that you guys have for Pasco Hillsboro, drop them in the comments below. We will appreciate it. I spent a couple of years in Miami. I love it. Don't know how to dance, but it's fun to watch. It's a lot of fun. Exactly. It's a great workout. And to attempt to. It's a great workout. It's a great core workout. Ooh, so maybe I actually do need to listen to a great core workout. Zoom, what's the thing? See, I know it's a thing. It's a thing. Let me not. I don't rule out anything. I need to actually give it a full effort. It's a lot of fun. Maybe. Okay. It's a lot of fun. I'm going to do my class. What's number four? Number four, my dream vacation, my bucket list dream vacation is to the Galapagos Islands off the coast of South America. I love that. Yeah. I'll come with. I'm just saying. You come with? Yeah, I'll come with. Okay, I'll come with. I really want to go down there and see the blue-footed boobies. Blue-footed boobies? I know. It's on hilarious. I'm telling you the truth. They're birds. They're birds. They're great. I look them up. Blue feet. And they do this little meeting dance. And they sort of click right here. Yes. Of them. But that'd be great. I think of Galapagos Islands and I just think like lizards and everything. Those two. But they're blue-footed boobies. They're fantastic. That's my dream vacation. That's my bucket list dream vacation that I'm going to try to take. Hopefully. I feel like hopefully in the next whole year it happens. I'm feeling it. I'm feeling it. It's coming. Stash in the cash away. Yes. Little by little. I love it. I love it. What's number five? Let's bring this home. Five, bring this home. I enjoy knitting, believe it or not. I enjoy knitting. I am actually working on it. Don't say anything about knitting guys. Knitting is great. It's very, it's very Zen. It's very relaxing and productive. Exactly. I have three different couples that I know in my life. They're all having baby girls in May. Three different baby girls in May. I just want to know what party they attended all at the same time. I taught myself how to. There's one in Atlanta, one here, and one in Massachusetts. Oh, so they're not even close. Not even. Never mind geographically. Maybe they all just went to the same festival, a concert that we can. I don't know. Who knows? I taught myself how to crochet. My freshman year of college. That's what I did. It's pretty awesome. As well as other stuff. I enjoy it. I enjoy it a lot. It's a lot of fun. Personal gifts and everything too. Yeah. I love that. I've got little tags on. How good are you? How good are you? I'm not bad. Oh, okay. I'm not like trying to teach someone. I teach them, but I'm not like winning any contest. We're not selling this stuff yet. We're not there yet. We're not selling this stuff yet. I love it. I love it. So those are five things. Wait, there was a bonus one. There was a bonus one. There was a bonus one. There was a bonus one. There's never five, everyone. There's never five. What's our bonus? The bonus is that I am starting a program this summer. I'm working on my second master's and emergency management. Which makes sense because that is her title. That's what they do. Kudos to you. That's going to be intense. That's going to be what's your first master's in? Environmental policy. Guys, girls, we're inclusive. Everyone, you can do whatever you put mine to. Yes, absolutely. And you're never too old to learn. You're never too young to start. You're never too old to stop. Very true. Very true. So there is that. Right around five things about EM, emergency management director, Sharon Russell. So thanks for tuning in, guys. Like the video if you do. Comment below if you have any suggestions for salsa dancing. And we will see you next time. Thanks. Bye.
