Submitted Biography: "Kenneth was born in 1965 and raised in Northeast Baltimore City. His working-class parents provided a loving and caring environment for Kenneth and his younger brother. His father, an electrician and Vietnam Era Veteran, and his mother, a state employee with the Department of the Environment, stressed the importance of family values and consistently following through on commitments. In 1987, a few years after graduating from Baltimore's Patterson High School, Kenneth was accepted into the Baltimore City Fire Department. Upon graduating from the Fire Academy he was assigned to one of Baltimore's busiest responding units, Engine 13 as a Fire Fighter/Emergency Medical Technician. During that time, Kenneth was featured in a documentary by the Discovery Channel called, "Streets of Fire" that highlighted the efforts of his company to meet the high demand for fire service in urban Baltimore City. Through the course of his 20 years of service, Kenneth took on ever increasing responsibilities. He received numerous awards for outstanding service and exemplary performance in responding to critical and often life threatening emergencies. Before his retirement from the department, Kenneth acquired a Maryland Home Improvement Commission contractor/salesman license and built his own home improvement business with his wife. They continue to successfully operate their small business today."
