I've spent the majority of my adult life employed in emergency services, and continue to find my work fulfilling. Throughout different services and titles I've sought opportunities to improve my knowledge and professional ability, such as serving as instructor with Knox Co. Rural/Metro Fire dept and preceptor for both Roane State C.C. as well as AMR's in house EMT programs. In continuing with furthering my experience and ability I wish to move into a supervisory position. First and foremost though, I am and will continue to be a paramedic at the service of my community.
As a paramedic for GMR, I've worked in both fire and EMS in the Knox Co. theater. With over 11 years serving this operation and the people of Knox county I've established good rapport with our other emergency services counterparts as well as Healthcare providers in and out of hospital. Over this period of time I've proven, and improved my ability to make rational field decisions as well as timely and competent patient care.
