” Eli Santiago is an outstanding instructor. He conducted a Fire Life Safety training for our Fire Wardens and we received excellent feedback from his informative session. You can tell he truly has a passion for what he does and his experience in the field is evident in the way he guides his educational fire safety training. As a property management professional, I recommend FIRED UP SOLUTIONS if you need valuable instructions on how to perform in emergency situations. You will not find a better experience ! ”
