About the Book Chad shares the highs, the lows, and everything in between during his career as a paramedic, as well the personal highs and lows. His stories highlight the dance between being fine and burning out, as well as how the system fails to serve those who have dedicated their lives and careers to serving others. About the Author Chad is a happily married father of three children: Caia, Maddox, and Brayden. He is a Nationally Registered Paramedic and has worked in Fire and EMS since 2004 and is currently a Paramedic Captain with an EMS agency in Vermont. Burnt Out is Chad's first book, but a second memoir is in the works. Aside from reading and writing, Chad enjoys spending time outdoors, specifically fishing, hiking, and hunting. He also plays guitar and paints landscapes in oil. Despite his occasional tendency to curse, his faith plays an important role in his life.
