With over 30 years of service in 9-1-1 emergency response, I’ve dedicated my career to helping others when it matters most. My journey began as an EMT, advanced to Paramedic, and continued as a Firefighter Paramedic—experiences that shaped not only my skills, but my passion for education and what truly makes an effective instructor.

In 1991, I founded my CPR and First Aid training company after witnessing firsthand how rarely bystander CPR was performed before emergency crews arrived. Today, we clearly see the difference education and awareness make—communities that are prepared save lives. That is the heart of Life Beat’s mission: to teach people how to save a life and give them the confidence to act when seconds count.

My instruction is grounded in real-world experience and focuses on making CPR/AED/First-Aid skills simple, practical, and accessible. Classes are designed to be engaging and supportive—never overwhelming or stressful. Watching students gain confidence, understanding, and the ability to take action in an emergency is what I find most rewarding.

Everyone can learn these vital skills. Life Beat Safety is here to help you do just that.
