This is Derek Miller, Speaking on Business. AT&T is providing first responders nationwide with the dependable support they need during their most critical moments. Mountain & Desert States President for AT&T, Tara Thue, joins us with more.
Tara Thue:
While you know AT&T, you might not know about FirstNet, built with AT&T. FirstNet is the only nationwide communications network built with and for public safety – with a set of specialized, innovative tools, technologies and features specifically designed for public safety.
And it takes an incredible team to make it work. Today, I want to shine a spotlight on someone who truly embodies the spirit of service – Jeff Bassett. Jeff plays a critical role with FirstNet, ensuring that first responders have the reliable, cutting-edge communication tools they need in the field.
Most recently, Jeff’s leadership was on full display when he traveled to California to assist with the devastating fires, working alongside first responders to ensure critical communications and safety measures were in place.
A hero right here in our community, Jeff’s career as Fire Chief for both the South Davis Metro Fire Service Area and Sandy City has touched countless lives, keeping our communities safe.
At AT&T, we are proud to recognize Jeff as a leader, and a true local hero.
