Meet Your Instructor

 

My journey into emergency services started when I was in the second grade. One day, I came home to find my neighbor trapped beneath a large wooden cable spool. I wanted to help, but all I knew to do was call 911. As I watched the firefighters and EMS personnel respond, I knew that someday I wanted to be the person who showed up when someone was having the worst day of their life.

That experience led me to a lifetime of service. I am a U.S. Air Force Veteran, a Firefighter/EMT with more than 26 years of experience, and I have been teaching CPR, First Aid, and life-saving skills since 1997. At Buckeye CPR Training, you won't learn from someone who only teaches these skills—you'll learn from someone who has used them in real emergencies. My goal is simple: provide realistic, hands-on training that gives you the confidence to act when every second counts.
