Brief Biographical Sketch:

I started riding on ambulances at the age of 16 and quickly fell in love with the work. I am now an EMT in the state of Pennsylvania and Volunteer as an EMT for Boston College EMS. I am the CPR Coordinator for BC EMS and absolutely love teaching CPR. These classes are probably one of the things I will miss the most when I graduate in May.
