I am a Certified Wilderness First Responder through the company Remote Medical Training. This has certified me to address medical emergencies in remote settings. I've taught wilderness survival to a countless number of kids since 2015. I've led wilderness survival/bushcraft camps with the company Coyle Outside in Oregon. I've guided wilderness backpacking and canoe trips through Camp Kooch-I-Ching in Minnesota.
