Michael's journey in nursing began in 2000, initially immersing himself in the ICU setting. A retired veteran, Michael honorably served in both the Army and Air Force, where he built a strong foundation for his medical career with a long part-time service as a medic and nurse. His background as a paramedic led him to a Level I trauma center and, later, to the adrenaline-charged life of a flight nurse. After dedicating 18 years to emergency and trauma care, Michael transitioned to management roles, culminating in his position at FlexCare. He commends FlexCare for its team ethos, professionalism, and welcoming environment and strives to create the same for healthcare travelers.
