My name is Ryan and I was born and grew up in Palo Alto, California. I graduated from Henry M. Gunn High School in 2016 and graduated Pitzer College in the May of 2020. I joined the Prehospital Certification Club at Pitzer College in the fall semester of my freshman year. This club’s primary goal was to help students obtain their EMT-B certifications. By September 2018, I was an NREMT Certified EMT-B. As I took over the executive position of the Prehospital Certification Club, I continued the mission of helping new members obtain their EMT-B certifications but I also began to transition the focus of the club to encompass the entire Claremont Colleges community. While accepting members from the other colleges, I also looked to expand the club’s mission to ultimately establish the first student-employed Emergency Medical Service (EMS) on the Claremont Colleges Campus. In the fall of 2019, the organization officially became known as the Claremont Colleges EMS Club (an ASPC club) . To achieve the goal of creating a service, I worked closely alongside my co-president, Emma Finn, as well as other members of the club. Together, we worked closely with Campus Safety, similar student-employed EMSs, LA FIRE, LA Department of Health, as well as other entities to establish the Campus Safety Emergency Medical Service by January 2020. In addition to my work related to the Claremont Colleges EMS Club, I also have engaged in synthetic Organic Chemistry research in the Wenzel Lab since I began my college career in the fall of 2016. Furthermore, through the COPE program, I began volunteering at the Emanate Health hospitals in January 2018, and became a Training Coordinator in the May of 2018. I plans to live in Princeton, NJ along with my older brother; I have secured a position at Capital Health in Trenton, NJ where I plan to work as an ER/ED Technician as I apply and interview for medical school.
