Summary

I am a career fire officer/paramedic with experience in both suburban and rural fire departments as well as a variety of different EMS settings to include 911, interfacility, and critical care air medical environments. I have been employed in Fire/EMS for 15+ years, and have served in various capacities including Firefighter/Paramedic, Engineer/Paramedic, Flight Paramedic, Lieutenant, and Captain. I have served in various mentorship and leadership roles to include EMS student preceptor, field training officer, paramedic crew chief, and fire department company officer. I currently hold IFSAC Fire Instructor I and IFSAC Fire Officer II, and am currently looking to continue to sharpen my skills as a company officer to become a more effective and well rounded leader in the fire service.
