A recognized leader in public safety\, Chief Reardon is a graduate of the Naval Postgraduate School’s Executive Leaders Program\, the National Fire Academy’s Executive Fire Officer (EFO) Program\, and the Massachusetts Chief Fire Officer Program\, delivered in partnership with the Edward J.

His executive education also includes completion of Harvard University’s National Preparedness Leadership Initiative (NPLI) and Columbia University’s Leading with Impact program. Before entering the fire service\, Chief Reardon spent over a decade as an award- winning photojournalist in Boston\, with his work appearing on the covers of national magazines\, newspapers\, books\, and international broadcasts. He covered high-profile stories ranging from presidential visits and professional sports to celebrity appearances\, major trials\, and breaking national news events. \nAn accomplished speaker and published author\, Chief Reardon is frequently invited to present at leading conferences and institutions across the country.
