Transition Week is often a busy time for NCCC Leadership, especially on the campus level. We managed to find a minute to ask the Deputy Director for Unit Leadership, Dave Beach a few questions. Thanks, Dave for taking the time to talk with us! We really appreciate it!
Question: What is your dream job at NCCC?
Dave: I'm doing it. If I had to pick, it would be a team leader position. (Note: there's no age cap on Team Leader positions!)
Question: What is your dream job at FEMA?
Dave: Being a Voluntary Agency Liaison (VAL).
Question: What is your dream job overall?
Dave: Being the Commissioner of MLB.
Question: What do you think are the main improvements that can be made to FEMA Corps?
I think it would be having better projects and work assignments for teams to do during times where there aren't active disasters.
Question: What is your favorite place to eat?
Dave: Any place that has barbecue. There's a place, I don't know if it's still open, but it's called Country's Barbecue in Columbus, GA.
Question: What is your favorite song of the moment?
Dave: It's an older song, but it's "How Do You Like Me Now?" by Toby Keith.
Question: How did your military career prepare you for what you do now?
Dave: It taught me leadership. In the military, it's either you learn to lead or you fail.
Question: What is the one thing you think society needs?
Dave: Society (as in the United States' society) needs to reevaluate what fiscal responsibility means. You can't spend more money than you make and we need to come up with an idea of how to better manage things.
Question: What is your favorite number?
Dave: 77. Or anything having to do with the number 7. My dad drove a race car for a while that was the number 77, my favorite movie is 007, and so 7 is a recurring theme in my life.
