(inspiring music)

00:08.340 --> 00:09.840
- [Cynthia] Practice makes perfect

00:09.840 --> 00:12.430
and this emergency management journeyman knows that

00:12.430 --> 00:13.350
better than anyone

00:13.350 --> 00:15.700
when it comes to proper training and equipment.

00:16.160 --> 00:18.470
- Our job is divided into a lot of different categories.

00:18.470 --> 00:21.320
My specific section is quality assurance.

00:21.320 --> 00:24.000
Essentially it's to ensure that the processes that we have

00:24.000 --> 00:26.280
for evaluations are properly handled

00:26.280 --> 00:28.010
and the paperwork is written up afterwards

00:28.010 --> 00:29.460
if they're negative findings.

00:29.550 --> 00:31.140
- [Cynthia] For Senior Airman Figueroa,

00:31.140 --> 00:34.263
his job is so much more than a step-by-step process.

00:34.580 --> 00:36.210
Providing guidance and encouragement

00:36.210 --> 00:38.743
is what motivates him on a day-to-day basis.

00:38.850 --> 00:40.990
- I personally enjoy teaching more than anything else.

00:40.990 --> 00:43.770
It feels as though everything that I have been taught

00:43.770 --> 00:44.980
and everything I have been teaching

00:44.980 --> 00:48.643
is culminating together and making it all worthwhile.

00:48.649 --> 00:51.000
- [Cynthia] Teaching these skills and seeing the fruits

00:51.000 --> 00:52.940
of his work makes Airman Figueroa

00:52.940 --> 00:55.023
wanna be a better instructor every day.
