He is a senior instructor teaching subjects ranging from Trench Rescue, Rope Rescue, Rescue Systems, and more.
Overheard this episode:
"I never wanted to teach something that I didn't actually do rescues in"
"As an instructor you have to open your mind up and just not say, 'I'm the one in charge and you're going to listen to me' , that's the wrong attitude to have."
"The number one word is consistency"
