The Journey to Remote Medicine
I was working in a remote environment performing a dangerous job and was motivated to pursue a higher level so that I could take the lead in an emergency involving myself, my coworkers, or any civilians.
I hope to pursue a career in nursing in the future and expand my clinical understanding and scope. I love getting outside, usually hiking, backpacking, skiing, or any chance I have to swim in a lake. But I also enjoy a lazy day at home with a good thriller novel.
Teaching Philosopy
I enjoy lecturing in a way that students feel empowered to participate, whether sharing stories or asking questions. I like to emphasize a strong foundation of understanding in anatomy and physiology and build any practical skills upon that understanding. My goal is to prioritize hands on learning alongside lectures.

Most Memorable Field Experience
I responded as a good samaritan to an unconscious person on the side of the road. I had none of the equipment I would want, but it reinforced for me how the patient assessment is the most useful tool we have as EMTs.
Why I Choose to Teach
I love gaining a deeper understanding of how the human body works and how it can be impacted by illness and injury. I find it very fulfilling to help students achieve this understanding as well. I enjoy watching their skills and confidence develop and knowing that when they leave the classroom they now carry the skills necessary to save someones life and handle an emergency effectively.
