I am currently working towards obtaining my paramedics instructors license. I am also a part time employee for Fest Med, a company which provides full medical support for festivals of all kinds, all over the country. Working medical has helped me grow as a person and learn so many leadership qualities I am ready to apply to the workplace. I have always held down multiple jobs and stay motivated by the goals that I am chasing. I love picking up new skills and this desire has brought me many opportunities to expand what I bring to the table. I have experience on a Christmas Tree Farm, a Vineyard, a Campground, a Ranch, a Family Farm, and working at local Ski Slopes. Many of these jobs have been summer jobs while I was out of school, or part time when not in class or playing sports, but the lessons and skills I learned at each place have helped shaped me into the man I am today. I am excited to learn and continue to grow in a professional setting.
