Summary

As a trained firefighter I am dedicated to strengthening all my skills in EMS care. I believe I possess the knowledge, attitude, and ability necessary to succeed. I have established a couple events in the beautiful community I live in. I started a scholarship fund and highschool youth events in multiple states that have assisted kids going to college. In the past, I have assisted with administration reporting in the fire service and provided training for the department. I just resigned as an Eagle Fireman and desire to strengthen the skills I have been building as an Advanced EMT. My attention to detail, desire to serve my community, and ability to operate under stress provide the framework necessary to facilitate a professional team member at MVP.
