Bio

Hello! My name is Ben (short for Benedict). I’m an Student & volunteer EMT from Long Island, New York. I am the oldest of seven children and avid outdoorsman. I enjoy hunting, fishing, camping as well as physical fitness and self defense. I am going into my Junior year in college majoring in Finance. I have held multiple jobs, my favorite being a Park Ranger for the NYS Park Police. I currently work two jobs as a public safety officer (in addition to volunteering as an EMT & Ambulance driver) for different municipalities to help pay for school. I’m a hard worker and enjoy learning important life skills. My career goal is to work in Federal or State Law Enforcement and to protect and serve my community. In addition to being an EMT, I have a security guard, tactical emergency casualty care, boating, CPR, and hunting license/certificate.
