CV

Software, then ambulances, then both.

Former software engineer, now a paramedic with the London Ambulance Service. I founded SnapMedic in 2025 to bring both worlds together — clinical tools, ECG interpretation, OSCE practice, flashcards and welfare resources for UK ambulance clinicians.

SnapMedic — Creator

SnapMedic is a mobile and web application built for UK ambulance clinicians, covering clinical tools, ECG interpretation, OSCE practice, flashcards, and staff welfare resources. From zero to 10,000+ downloads.

As a solo founder I manage every part of the product — development, infrastructure, B2B partnerships and marketing — alongside full-time shift work as a paramedic.

London Ambulance Service NHS Trust — Paramedic

Each shift I attend to patients in a variety of settings and assess them before providing appropriate management — from direct PPCI pathways to referrals to primary care. Most patients I attend can be managed by me alone, but some require advanced clinical care, working as part of a multidisciplinary team in a high-pressure environment for time-critical patients.
