Sam's Pursuit
Nine One One Nonsense
Hello! My name is Sam, and I’m currently a full-time Flight Paramedic. I’ve worked in EMS for almost two decades, in multiple fields, which I believe gives me a unique perspective. Throughout my career, I’ve obtained my NREMT Paramedic, Bachelor of Science in EMS, FP-C, and many other certificates and degrees. I strongly believe that sharing our stories can be a healing experience than can educate, enlighten, and humble us. If you’re interested in hearing tales from highly qualified EMS professionals, we think you’ll find that our podcast, Nine One One Nonsense, is for you.
