Ten years as an Emergency Medical Dispatcher taught me how to stay calm, accurate, and decisive when everything is moving fast and the information is
What I'm looking for
I spend a decade making high-stakes decisions with incomplete information: as an Emergency Medical Dispatcher with Queensland Ambulance Service, I triaged and dispatched 80–140 emergency calls a shift, and as casual Operations Centre Supervisor I led teams of up to 16, ran quality reviews, and wrote serious-incident reports. I've since applied that same judgment to aged-care support and to evaluating Tesla ADAS/FSD performance against defined criteria.
More recently I've built a self-directed AI research and verification practice, running structured multi-model workflows across Claude, ChatGPT, Manus, and Perplexity — genuine working fluency, not casual use. I combine that with calm, direct human judgment for remote customer operations, trust & safety, quality assurance, incident management, and AI-enabled support roles.
