William Hertel | Regional Account Manager - OH, KY, IN, MI
William Hertel - Inspired to community service by his father, William Hertel entered public safety as an EMT and a Firefighter in the late 70’s. After dedicating twenty years to his community, he retired his post as Fire Chief for what became another twenty years in guiding his peers on technology solutions for the fire service.
With a lifetime of experiences, and motivated by his passion to improve the lives and safety of all of our public safety responders, William appreciates every opportunity to share his wealth of knowledge in technology and in public safety. His attention to detail and his deep loyalty to public safety are both a match and a complement to that of your Infinite Command team.
On a personal note, Bill is most proud of 44 years of marriage to his wife Cathy, and their 2 children, and 5 grandchildren. In keeping tradition, both his son and daughter have community service in their blood – his son is a Fire Lieutenant and his daughter is a budding nurse. From little league (grandkids) to the big leagues (a Reds and a Cubs fan) – you will find Bill at a ball park many evenings and weekends through spring and summer.
