R.J. was all that he said he would be! His professionalism, ability to respond to questions immediatley, and knowledge, were all much appreciated by everyone in the class. We will hire him again when the next group of people need to get their CPR, 1st Aid, and AED training done.

The owner/trainer RJ provided a lot of valuable information going beyond the required material for certification. Very responsive via Thumbtack and Email. It was great to get training by someone who has a lot of experience in the field.
