Over many years, I've trained 100’s of Firefighters, EMTs, Paramedics, and Police Officers in the NJ EMT and Paramedic Programs. Professionally, I'm a Registered Respiratory Therapist (RRT) and I served as a volunteer EMT throughout NJ.

 

Volunteering is a calling for me. My father was a volunteer firefighter in our hometown in Bergen County, and I grew up seeing him respond to emergencies 24/7/365. When I was in high school, he got me involved with our local Volunteer Ambulance Squad, and I was trained with EMS crews from the age of 16.

 

In my college years. I was a professional EMT in New York City, and I worked in an Emergency Room when not responding to calls.

 

I believe in the oversight function of the CH Fire Commission, ensuring that fire, rescue, and emergency medical services are properly funded, staffed, and equipped to protect residents, businesses, and visitors.

​

I offer considerable business experience to the Fire Commission. In my Hospital career, I managed a RT Dept of 23 professionals in a busy 24/7/365 environment. I also was the Program Director for an AMA-accredited School of Respiratory Therapy.
