Episode 119 - Matthew Lysy

Matthew Lysy is a Firefighter/Paramedic with the Prince George's County, MD Fire and EMS Department and 10 year veteran of the emergency services.  As a second generation firefighter and continuous student of the profession, Matthew has come to recognize the need to incorporate the human element into operations. With the advancements in technology, apparatus, and PPE the human response is still largely removed from operations. Hailing from New Jersey and growing up along the beach has helped to shape an active and disciplined lifestyle. It is Matthew's belief that although we are a high performance profession in many ways there is still a lot we can learn from in the advancements of other high performing industries. Matthew holds a Bachelors of Science Degree in Psychology from King's College and is a State of Maryland Level II fire instructor. Matthew is a lead fire instructor with Task Force 1 Inc and an assistant instructor with O2x Human performance. For fun Matthew enjoys spending time with family and exploring new places. Matthew currently lives outside of Baltimore, MD.  @matthewlysy12 Sponsorship: @southwest_fire_academy  Editing: @bradshea Marketing: @m.pletz Administration: @haileygreenfitness Partnership: @firefighternationhq
