Share some things you enjoy doing in your<br />
spare time.<br />
EMS, at times, can be stressful. It is very important to have<br />
healthy ways to cope with stress. A few of my favorite pastimes<br />
are family game nights, catching up with friends, and playing<br />
billiards.<br />
What are three things on your bucket list?<br />
As many people do, I have a great love for traveling. I enjoy<br />
outdoor adventure, and I would love to experience snorkeling<br />
in the Great Barrier Reef, doing a helicopter tour of the Grand<br />
Canyon, and visiting Greece and enjoying the crystal-clear<br />
waters.<br />
Who is someone you admire and why?<br />
Someone who I have great admiration towards is my grandmother.<br />
Bibi Swaran Kaur grew up in the small villages of<br />
Lamba Pind, Jalandhar, India. She faced many hardships, but<br />
she was always able to maintain a positive outlook on life. Even<br />
though she was never able to attend primary school, she was<br />
still able to teach me the importance of education. She would<br />
always say, “Education is the one thing that no one can take<br />
away from you.” Bibi Swaran passed away July 2021, but she<br />
continues to inspire and encourage me.<br />
If you could give one piece of advice to a young<br />
person, what would it be?<br />
Life is not as linear as you think when you are young, and as<br />
you grow, you realize that there are many curves and turns<br />
that you must learn to navigate. Sometimes you may get<br />
comfortable, but facing change allows you to grow. You must<br />
remember that everything happens for a reason, and you are<br />
right where you need to be!<br />
What is your favorite thing about Madison County?<br />
The comradery that all of the hospitals, EMS, police, and fire<br />
departments maintain with one another. Due to the exceptional<br />
teamwork between crews on-scene, we are able to achieve<br />
better patient outcomes. Our relationships with the hospitals<br />
allows for a smooth transition between prehospital and<br />
long-term care. Throughout my time here in Canton, I have<br />
been fortunate to have become a part of the local healthcare<br />
family, and I have made many lifelong relationships.<br />
