  Pacific Ambulance

  EMT

  I was an EMT for Pacific Ambulance before they lost their contract for my area. I worked a special shift which was based out of the Fountain Valley Regional Hospital in Southern California. Our shift did all the transports for the hospital. I was able to work in all the departments of the hospital and experienced a wide array of challenges which were, quite literally, life or death decisions.

  Solesbee Auto Crafts

  Feb 2014 - Jan 2015

  Estimator

  I worked at an auto body shop as an Estimator. Being thorough and extremely accurate were requisite, the safety of my customers were determined by my ability to correctly and quickly decipher through the auto collision wreckage and see what was needed to repair their car back to factory standards. I worked directly with the local dealers as well as many other parts companies and actively searched for the best deals on the product I was purchasing, while still being able to return the customer vehicle back to factory standards. I had to be very computer proficient and had to be very organized as I handled between 25-35 different jobs at a time and followed them from start to finish. Show less
