Let the adventure begin
Your age doesn't have to define you and I'm determined to prove that no matter when you start a chapter, you can always make it more exciting than the last one.
I'm Steven Hutson and I have spent 27 years in the fire service in Muskogee, Oklahoma while learning to teach others to protect themselves and others.

Around the world and around the neighborhood
From beginning my instructional career with Oklahoma State University in 2008 all the way to working internationally by 2015, I strive to deliver the most up to date and useful information available for the first responder. With hazardous materials teams in five countries on three continents that I have mentored from infancy all the way to having their own instructional staff, I bring the same passion to instruction for the smallest volunteer fire department that I do for military groups and government agencies across the globe.

travels
casablanca, morocco
Travels across Morocco for the last several years have been an eye opening experience for a guy that up until very recently barely left Oklahoma. From Tangiers to Marrakech, I've visited most of Morocco and it remains one of my favorite destinations.
Prague, Czech republic
Prague is by far my favorite destination to just relax and spend time wandering through history. My wife's family is actually from a village just a short drive outside town and one of the greatest things that I have been able to do was bring my mother-in-law to visit some of her family's historical homeland.
Nairobi, kenya
Don't tell these guys, but they are probably one of my proudest moments when it comes to my overseas teams and their progress. I started teaching these guys back in 2014 when they didn't even understand what hazmat was. We just took our first team of instructors and trained 400 Kenyan national police officers in hazmat awareness and have a fully functional hazmat team in the Kenyan Defense Force that has already responded to several incidents.
Dakar, senegal
This group of guys have all the heart and most of the drive. The Dakar Fire Department has worked with me for the last several years and has taught me that even through major language barriers, training people to respond to disaster is a common denominator that can break down any barrier.
paris, france
Even though so many cities in Europe have become just stop overs for me when I'm headed somewhere to teach, I always love the smile it gives my wife when I'm able to bring her over on the end of one of my trips and spend a week or two somewhere. We were actually at mass in Notre Dame the last Easter before it burned.
