Background

About Reshon Wilburn

Fire & Life Safety professional with over 20 years of experience supporting inspections, safety compliance, and emergency preparedness across military and state government environments. My background is rooted in protecting people, property, and operations through proactive risk assessment, hazard mitigation, and strict adherence to fire and life safety codes. As a certified Fire Inspector and current Emergency Management Coordinator, I conduct detailed facility inspections, safety checks, and compliance reviews to ensure alignment with regulatory standards and best practices. I have extensive experience identifying code deficiencies, documenting findings, and implementing corrective actions in accordance with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) codes and life safety requirements. My work focuses on maintaining safe, inspection-ready environments through consistent enforcement, education, and accountability. I bring hands-on experience supporting emergency operations, including coordinating drills, contributing to Emergency Operations Center (EOC) activities, and applying principles from National Incident Management System (NIMS) and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). My skill set includes risk assessment, incident reporting, safety training, and developing preparedness programs that strengthen organizational readiness. In my role as a Campus Safety Officer with the Georgia World Congress Center Authority (GWCCA), I support fire and life safety operations within a large-scale, high-occupancy event environment. This includes monitoring life safety systems, ensuring egress pathways remain compliant, supporting emergency response coordination, and maintaining situational awareness during major events. This experience has strengthened my ability to operate in fast-paced public settings where safety, communication, and rapid decision-making are critical. Known for clear communication, strong public presence, and the ability to lead and collaborate in high-pressure situations, I am committed to advancing fire prevention, life safety compliance, and emergency preparedness. My goal is to continue serving in a Fire & Life Safety role where I can directly contribute to protecting lives, ensuring code compliance, and supporting safe, world-class facilities.
