Dedicated dispatcher with extensive experience in emergency communication.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated professional with a strong background in emergency communication and logistics. Currently, I serve as a Dispatcher at Blount County Emergency Communication District, where I manage high-volume emergency and non-emergency calls, ensuring prompt and accurate responses to critical situations. My role requires exceptional communication skills and the ability to assess emergencies quickly, coordinating with first responders to optimize outcomes.
Previously, I worked as a Logistics Specialist II at Pilot Flying J, where I planned and executed the delivery of fuel loads, analyzing costs and inventory to maintain optimal operations. My experience as an Advanced EMT and EMT-IV has equipped me with the skills to provide life support services during medical emergencies, further enhancing my ability to remain calm and effective under pressure. I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science in Organizational Leadership, which has strengthened my strategic thinking and leadership abilities.
