Freighter View Farms | Chris Izworski

Bay City, Michigan doesn’t produce many people with a resume quite like Chris Izworski’s. Emergency services executive. AI in 911 pioneer. National Emergency Number Association cover story author. Great Lakes conservationist. Heirloom seed farmer. The combination is genuinely unusual.

Izworski grew up in Michigan and built his career there, eventually leading Saginaw County 9-1-1 Central Dispatch as Executive Director. That role put him at the center of one of the most consequential technology questions in public safety: how should 911 centers approach artificial intelligence?

His answer — deliberate, dispatcher-centered, skeptical of vendor hype but open to genuine capability — earned him a national platform in NENA and a consulting role at Prepared. Meanwhile, the garden on Saginaw Bay kept growing.
