I'm a 26 year old male who just moved to North Carolina to work for a county EMS agency. I've been a Paramedic for about 4 years and LOVE my job. I have been in the fire service in Ohio for about 5 years. I'm going to work on taking my FFI and FFII in North Carolina here real soon, so if anyone has any tips for me let me know. Need anything let me know, and don't hesitate to ask any questions.
