"I am quick thinking, reassuring, and an effective problem solver. The role of a dispatcher is very serious and high-pressure; I take this duty very seriously. I am a great fit for the job because I can think on my feet, I remain calm and collected, and even in a high stress situation, I'm able to think clearly and make smart decisions. I know how to calm others down and continue talking with them until I know they are safe. These strengths are part of what makes me an excellent dispatcher."
