Casey
Hi, I'm Casey.
I'm a Registered Nurse, CPR Instructor, a Sarasota native, and co-owner/operator of CPR Sarasota.
​
I'm also a very proud mom to three beautiful children, two big slobbery furbabies, and the (arguably) better half to the stud featured below ;)
​
I've been a nurse for about 16 years, practicing in critical care, trauma, cardiovascular, and emergency medicine. I am specially trained as a SANE (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner), and in emergency medical response to mass casualty and disaster events, as well as barrier precautions for highly infectious diseases.
I keep my skills sharp and actively practice the life saving techniques I teach in our courses as a Trauma Resuscitation Nurse at my local community hospital, where I also serve as the Trauma Injury Prevention Coordinator.
I love what I do, and I'm excited to share my passion for emergency care and teaching with you. I look forward to seeing you in class!
Scott
Hey! I'm Scott.
I am a CPR Instructor, and co-owner/operator of CPR Sarasota, Casey's partner, and Dad to an amazing family.
​
I was born in Maryland, but relocated with my family to Sarasota when I was in middle school. Sarasota however, is my forever home and I am grateful for this opportunity to give back to my community by teaching CPR to my neighbors and fellow community members.
My degree is in communications, and I have background training in the Fire Science Academy and emergency response. I really enjoy working with people, and teaching CPR has given me an amazing opportunity to meet a lot of fantastic new people, like you!

Hi I'm Jeff,
​
I started my career in healthcare in 2008, as a part time EMT in North Carolina, while finishing my degree in Exercise Science and Biology from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
I then attended Paramedic school and moved to Orlando with my beautiful wife, when she was given the opportunity to dance and perform in her dream job, as a character at a Florida theme park you may be familiar with...
​
Next, I went to the Fire Academy, and spent the next 12 years as a full time Firefighter/Paramedic.
​
I graduated nursing school in 2021, and am now a full time Registered Nurse at a level II Trauma Center, in the Emergency Department. I've also been an American Heart Association Instructor, teaching CPR since 2019.
​
I look forward to meeting you!

Morgan
Hi, My name is Morgan!
​
I started my career in healthcare 13 years ago, and I've been a Registered Nurse in the Emergency Department for the last 7 years. I have worked at level I and level II trauma centers over the years, and now happily work at a level II trauma center in the area. I hold a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing, and am currently pursuing my Master of Science in Nursing Education degree!
I hold four nationally recognized board certifications: Certified Emergency Nurse (CEN), Trauma Certified Registered Nurse (TCRN), Certified Pediatric Emergency Nurse (CPEN), and I am a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE-A). In addition to teaching basic and advanced cardiac life support, I also teach TNCC and ENPC (trauma nursing and pediatric trauma nursing certification courses).
​
I am from Connecticut, but moved to Florida in late 2020. I live in Sarasota county with my amazing fiancee Bobby, and our three dogs; Manicotti, Limoncello, and Bella. We love cooking together, fishing, boating, and watching movies.
​
I look forward to working with you to achieve your educational goals!

Gabrielle
Hey there!
​
My name is Gabrielle, but people call me Snook. I'm from Charlotte, North Carolina, where I met my husband, and we relocated to Florida in 2011.
​
We moved to Florida so I could perform for Disney, Universal Studios, Sea World, and eventually became a principal dancer for Norwegian Cruise Lines.
​
After that, we moved to the Sarasota/Bradenton area, where I currently teach dance. My husband was a Firefighter/Paramedic for 13 years, and is now a full time ER RN at a level II Trauma Center. He is an AHA Instructor as well, and after sitting in on his classes, I am excited to be an instructor myself!
