Welcome to Yountville, Chief Isham!

While we're on the subject of the great staff at Station 12, let me introduce new CAL FIRE/Napa County Fire Department Battalion Chief Ryan Isham, who was born and raised in Napa County. Isham started his career as a volunteer firefighter at Station 10 in Carneros in 2004. In 2007 he joined CAL FIRE LNU as a Fire Fighter I and went on to work on our Helitak Crew, in the Emergency Command Center and at Stations 24 (Spanish Flat), 25 (Napa) and 30 (Las Posadas). In 2021, he promoted to Battalion Chief in the CAL FIRE Mendocino Unit. He has served as a Strike Team Leader and Division Group Supervisor during many campaign fires. He recently transferred back to LNU’s South Division in Battalion 1416 and is happy to be back home serving his community.
