Maple Grove, Minnesota, United States
As a Field Trainer and Emergency Medical Technician with the University of Minnesota EMS, I lead and mentor new EMTs while delivering high-quality, patient-centered emergency care. I actively assist in teaching the university’s EMT-B course and am deeply passionate about EMS education, clinical excellence, and professional development in prehospital medicine. Beyond EMS, I am an Eagle Scout and dedicated volunteer with Northern Star Scouting, where I have served as Lodge Chief of the Order of the Arrow and as Territory Venturing President for Scouting America's 4th Council Service Territory. These roles have given me extensive experience in outdoor leadership, team development, and community service. Currently, I am pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology at the University of Minnesota as a pre-medical student, with plans to graduate in Spring 2026. I am committed to combining my passion for emergency medicine, education, and leadership into a lifelong career in healthcare and public service.
