Summary

I'm a dedicated Paramedic with 9 years of experience. I have been involved in EMS for 39 years, mostly as volunteer, and I have enjoyed every minute of it.

I have worked hard to keep my skills at a high level and I have a good feeling knowing those skills have made a difference in the lives of my patients. I have also tried to keep abreast of advances in EMS training and techniques.

I have extensive experience working with different people in many different environments and hope to continue.
