I am a Nationally Registered Paramedic with a broad public-safety background that includes emergency medical services, fire and life safety, and military medicine as an Army 68W Healthcare Specialist. My additional certifications include Fire Inspector, Plans Examiner, Fire Officer ,Hazardous Materials Specialist, Texas Peace Officer, and much more. I'm an adjunct instructor for our current paramedic class with La Salle County Fire Rescue. I've taught in this role since the Academy opened our first class in 2020. This combination allows me to connect classroom concepts with practical decision-making, patient assessment, scene safety, and real-world emergency response.
I work with adult EMT and paramedic students through individualized, one-on-one instruction. My approach begins by identifying the student’s weak areas, whether those involve medical emergencies, trauma, cardiology, airway management, pharmacology, operations, or understanding how to approach NREMT-style questions. Instead of relying only on memorization, I teach students how to recognize important information, apply the appropriate treatment priorities, eliminate distracting answer choices, and select the best answer based on the patient’s presentation.
Lessons can include targeted content review, practice questions, scenario-based discussions, and test-taking strategies tailored to the student’s current level. I strive to create a comfortable learning environment where students can ask questions without feeling judged. Whether you are preparing for your first NREMT attempt, trying to understand difficult course material, or rebuilding confidence after an unsuccessful attempt, I will help you develop a focused study plan and a stronger clinical thought process.
