Jeramie Eginoire is an Iowa-based fire captain, 2025 Firefighter of the Year, travel writer, author, and outdoor adventurer whose work explores the intersection of travel, resilience, leadership, family, and the lessons we carry home from the places we visit.
His writing has appeared in Journal of Emergency Medical Services (JEMS), Firehouse Magazine, Iowa Outdoors Magazine, and other publications, often drawing from more than two decades in the fire service and travels with his wife and three daughters across more than 25 countries. He is also the author of How Travel Has Made Me Less of a Jerk and creator of The Wandering Firefighter.
When he isn’t at the firehouse or writing, Jeramie is usually planning the next family adventure, rucking, hiking, helping lead Folds of Honor Iowa, or figuring out how to turn an unexpected conversation with a stranger into his next story.
