Bio

After being a firefighter and Emergency Medical Technician for 5 years, I found my true passion of helping others in their time of distress. I continue to further my experience and knowledge everyday because the more I know, the more I can help. After preserving through several challenges my ADHD and dyslexia pushed my way, I graduated as a Paramedic Technician from Pennsylvania College of Technology in 2020. I currently am enrolled in Westmoreland County Community college in order to further my education in hopes of becoming a Respiratory Therapist.
