The Making of a Fire Chief: Tracy “TMAC” McMillion’s Story
In the new season of the Stories to Create podcast, Cornell Bunting sits down with Chief Tracy “TMAC” McMillion for an inspiring and insightful conversation about leadership, service, and purpose.
Chief McMillion’s journey in the fire service began after graduating from the Mid-Florida Tech Fire Academy in Central Florida in 1994. He went on to serve briefly as a volunteer with Eatonville Fire Rescue in Eatonville, Florida, before being hired in 1996 by the City of Fort Myers Fire Department. There, he proudly served as a Firefighter/Paramedic until 2003, when he joined the neighboring Iona McGregor Fire District.
Tracy’s dedication and leadership propelled him through the ranks, earning promotions to Training Captain in 2014, Battalion Chief of Training in 2015, and Division Chief of Training in 2016—roles in which he faithfully served and made a lasting impact. In March 2019, he returned to the City of Fort Myers Fire Department as Deputy Fire Chief. Later that year, he was appointed Interim Fire Chief in November and officially became Fire Chief in December.
Chief McMillion holds an Associate of Science degree in Fire Service Technology, an Associate of Science degree in Emergency Medical Technology, a Bachelor’s degree in Management, and a Master’s degree in Administration. His leadership philosophy is simple yet powerful: lead by example, treat everyone with respect, and make every encounter meaningful.
A devoted husband, proud father, and committed community servant, Chief McMillion also reflects on his early years growing up in Long Island, New York, before moving to Florida with his family at the age of seven. Tune in as he shares his journey, lessons learned, and the values that continue to guide his life and leadership.
