Experience
Founder CEO
Jan 2005 — Present · Knoxville, TN, US
As the owner and founder of CPR Choice, I am dedicated to advancing life-saving skills and emergency preparedness in our communities. Our company not only serves as a distributor of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) but also provides comprehensive training programs in CPR/AED, First Aid, and Basic Life Support (BLS). We tailor our training to meet the needs of various audiences, including industrial and construction workers as well as lay rescuers, ensuring that everyone has the tools and knowledge to respond effectively in emergencies.In addition to managing daily operations, sales, and human resources, I actively contribute to the healthcare and training landscape by serving on the local American Heart Association (AHA) Board of Directors, the Tennessee State Advocacy Committee, and the ECC Subcommittee. I am also a member of the HSI Quality Assurance Board and act as an AHA Training Center Mentor. My passion extends to providing business consulting and participating in speaking engagements, where I share insights on best practices in CPR training and emergency response.With five brick-and-mortar locations, CPR Choice stands as a nationwide training center committed to excellence in education and community safety. Our partnerships and initiatives, such as our recent training programs with State of TN and support for Project Adam, underscore our dedication to fostering a culture of preparedness and resilience.
