Summary

Experienced AEMT with a proven track record in patient care and emergency transport. Skilled in training new EMTs and enhancing team performance through clear communication. Ready to leverage expertise in critical situations to improve patient outcomes.

I began my career in as an EMT later in life when I was no longer satisfied with where things were going in my life. I had always worked retail and clerical positions, either standing in front of a cash register, or sitting at a computer all day. Something had to change. This...was that change.
