Event medics, has the contracts for all the nationwide Spartan races, and Tough Mudder. They also all do contracts for the film and movie industry, and productions.
I do volunteer medic work as well, like with a recent dog sled race, or with other organizations like Team Rubicon. My day job, is as a Risk manager, for a large company. My end goal is to completely just do contracts for remote medic work, and volunteer disaster relief work, consulting as a risk manager from the road.

lots of networking, experience and the quals help. Do you have your EMT? Im happy to answer any questions you have as well.
