On July 7th, 2024 I was part of a team of lifeguards who brought a 3 year old girl back to life after a near drowning incident where she had lost her pulse and was not breathing. After several minutes of CPR we brought this young girl back to consciousness and saved her life. Not only was it one of the scariest moments of my life, but one of the most rewarding moments as well to know I helped this family gain their little girl back.
