Summary
I am an active student at Old Dominion University finishing up my junior year, working towards a bachelor's degree in communications. I have been a practicing EMT since 2022, with experience in both pre and in-hospital capacities. Currently I work for CHKD as an Emergency Department Tech and for Virginia Beach Lifesaving services as a lifeguard supervisor. Prior to working at CHKD I expanded my EMS knowledge by completing both PALS and PHTLS classes. In my free time I volunteer at TCC, helping to teach their EMT classes.
