ProRanger Graduate Trent Haire

 



I was born in Amarillo, Texas, but was raised just south of Houston, Texas. I returned to Amarillo for high school. After high school I moved to San Antonio to attend the University of Texas of San Antonio. I come from a divorced family and grew up with my mom , step-father, and sister.  I have a four year-old brother from my dad’s side and a two year-old adopted brother on my mom’s side. Most people only have one father and in some cases no father at all. I was blessed enough to have two fathers growing up. I have a one year old niece that is the love of my life. Family and friends are very important to me because I don’t know where I would be without them.

I am participated in the ProRanger Program because this was a rare opportunity to learn and position myself in the path of success. I have always had a love for mother nature and the great outdoors. Over the past couple of years I have grown very intrigued by law enforcement. The ProRanger Program gave me the chance to pursue a career in a field that is a combination of the two. I plan on working hard and making the most of this opportunity.  I joined this program to not only better myself, but to help others.
Trent did his first internship at Yellowstone National Park. He gained a broad spectrum of excperience working at Yellowstone. Trent engaged in activies in the backcountry, front country, working with visitors and the various highly skilled staff at this icon National Park.










 
Trent's second summer internship was at Gulf Island National Seashore. Trent was an outstanding asset to the staff at GUIS. He engaged in all aspects of Rangering and truly enjoyed his work at GUIS.
