I am passionate about changing things on a large level. I have spent many years in emergency medicine working as an Emergency Medical Technician and during my time I came to realize I love helping people, however, I was never able to get everyone. I wanted to reach more people outside of my coverage area. As an EMT or any medical professional, working outside of ones jurisdiction is hard unless you do outside activities such as brigades which brings me to Global Medical brigades. I look forward to traveling to another country and learning about conducting assessments in different cultures. I believe learning about different cultures and knowing about treating individuals is important to my passion, public health.
