Mindful of pandemic concerns, his mom and dad will get a recording of the moment. That direction is forward, Augustin said, to a future of bolstered morale for a department still absorbing the impacts of a recent controversial leadership shakeup. Once an avid bodybuilder in his 20s who now trains heavily in CrossFit, Augustin comes from the much larger Sacramento Fire Department.
Chief Augustin comes to Pasadena from the Sacramento Fire Department (SFD) where he worked for more than 20 years and in a broad range of areas including operations, administration, human resources, professional standards, training, emergency medical services and fire prevention.
Chief Augustin began his career with SFD as a firefighter paramedic and has risen through the ranks over the last 20 years, serving in a wide range of areas, including training, fire prevention, administration, human resources, professional standards, operations and emergency medical services. During his tenure with SFD, he has provided leadership in support of high-quality EMS care and transportation, streamlined the emergency response model for ambulance dispatch, and managed cost recovery efforts and billing improvements. In February , Chief Augustin was selected for the highly competitive Fire Service Executive Development Institute, a program developed by the International Association of Fire Chiefs, to provide new and aspiring chiefs with the tools they need to have successful and productive tenures.
