M E E T T H E M E D I C S:

Meet Lori Patterson, one of the newest full-time members of our behind the scenes team! If Paramedics save patients, and EMTs save Paramedics…then definitely our Bookkeeper saves Adventure Medics! We are eternally grateful to Lori for joining our crazy team and helping keeping all of our finances in line.

Prior to joining us at Adventure Medics, Lori wore many different hats, including office manager, bookkeeping, and human resources. She has been involved in office work and bookkeeping since she was thirteen! In her words, “Bookkeeping was the fun part to me, as it is like solving a puzzle every day.” Despite going to college to be a psychologist, Lori found herself drawn back to the world of numbers and accounting – and we are so glad to have her as part of our crew! In Lori’s words: “My favorite part of working here are the people – everyone is incredibly nice and welcoming and inspiring…I’m honored to work around real-life superheroes and derive a true sense of purpose in supporting their efforts so they can do their life saving work.” We kinda feel like the real superheroes are the ones back at the office – keeping us out of trouble so we can doing the fun stuff!

While Lori might not come from a medical background, she definitely hits the “Adventure” part of Adventure Medics full on! Lori and her husband moved from Silverton, OR to La Pine at the end of June – ready for a break from the Portland area rain and traffic. They have fallen in love with this area over the years, usually spending summer camping at lakes and exploring the forest. They are thrilled to be surrounded by trees and nature in La Pine – and can’t wait to start filling their new home with dogs and other critters. Lori’s love for this area runs deep – learning to fly fish along the Deschutes River with her parents and brother as a young girl. Outside of work, she loves to be in nature – hiking, biking, kayaking, and spending time with her family. Extra bonus? Reading fantasy and historical fiction books outside along the water.

Her next big adventure? Dirt biking with her husband. (We hope they sign up for our next WFA before sending it too hard!! 🏍️💥)

M E E T T H E M E D I C S:

Meet Jeff Kroll! Jeff joined our wildland team as a paramedic and then, much to our collective delight, came on board as the Assistance Wildland Manager in 2025! Dave is beyond thrilled to have a righthand man to help hold down the fort during the throes of a crazy wildland season, and we are so excited to have Jeff on our team full time!

Jeff has the kind of background that we love at Adventure Medics. He got his start in fire and EMS back in the 80’s, serving as a Paramedic for the FDNY from 1987-1999. During that time, he also pursued his bachelor’s degree and earned a BA in Sociology from SUNY Stoney Brook in 1996. Ready for a change, Jeff decided to pursue a career as an Acupuncturist to keep delivering holistic and whole person care to patients. He obtained his Masters in Acupuncture at Pacific College Health Science and worked as an licensed acupuncturist from 2002-2018. But like most of us in this field, the call to fire and chaos never really goes away! Jeff worked for the USFS as a wildland firefighter on E341 in the Inyo National Forest, and later joined the Lone Pine Fire Department from 2018-2022. Ready to set his sights back to the world of medicine, Jeff started working as a EMTF in 2023 while working to recertify as a paramedic. He joined our company in 2024 and is a rockstar Line Medic in the field and fantastic AWM in the office. We are lucky to have someone with so much passion and experience!

Outside of work, Jeff is a happily married dog dad who is loving life in Bend, OR. He and his family love to spend their time hiking, mountain biking, and long distance backpacking. When he needs to give his feet a rest from the trails, Jeff love to SCUBA and is a certified NAUI Divemaster and Rescuer.

Ready, Set, Mo!

We’ve got a team of Growers at Adventure Medics raising awareness for the Movember Project!

Men’s health is in crisis. Men are dying on average 4.5 years earlier than women, and for largely preventable reasons.

A growing number of men – around 10.8M globally – are facing life with a prostate cancer diagnosis. Globally, testicular cancer is the most common cancer among young men. And across the world, one man dies by su***de every minute of every day, with males accounting for 69% of all su***des.

Movember is the leading charity for men’s health and funds groundbreaking projects all over the world, addressing mental health, su***de, prostate, and testicular cancer. Visit their website to learn more about how to take care of your health and support the cause!

Or visit our team site to make a donation: https://us.movember.com/team/2492288

And check back at the end of the month to see what kind of dirty mo’s these bros manage to grow!

Portland / Troutdale classes are here!

Every Wednesday we’ll be hosting a hybrid style class to get you trained, certified, and back to doing what you love. Whether it’s chasing waterfalls in the gorge, scoping out the new powder on Mt Hood, or checking out the new food truck pods in the city, we’re here to get you back to your day faster.

Our hybrid classes will supply you with video learning to complete on your own time ahead of your classroom sessions. Then we’ll spend two hours in the classroom giving you the hands on learning and feedback to feel confident with all your new skills.

We offer AHA BLS Heartcode classes for our medical providers and ASHI CPR/First Aid for the public. Not sure what you need? Send us a message and we’ll help you figure it out!

M E E T T H E M E D I C S:

We’re back to MTM content! We have several new faces on our team and a handful of folks who have switched roles within the company. Looking forward to sharing all these changes with you in the coming weeks. But without further ado…

Meet Matt Szundy! At this point we’ve lost track of the Matt’s at our company, but this Matt brings a background like none other! Matt is joining our operation as the Director of Operations: Training Division and we are so excited to see where his vision and drive takes this department next! Matt is an entrepreneur by nature, and was the owner and operator of Ascending Path in Alaska from 1995-2023. During those years, Matt and his company specialized in adventure tourism, guiding, and providing support on remote wilderness. Additionally, Matt served as a subject matter expert for the US Navy in Alaska. As if that didn’t keep him busy enough, Matt has also led dozens of international mountaineering expeditions and ran the US Government SAR team for the Continent of Antarctica. Matt earned his WFR in 1995 and has stayed current throughout the years.

We are beyond excited to add Matt’s business savvy, sense of adventure, and technical knowledge in wilderness medicine and rope rescue to our team. In his words, “I love the ambitious focus and growth trajectory of this awesome company. And the people rock!” We have a feeling that the Matt S. Squared Duo of Matt Sabelman and Matt Szundy will be an unstoppable power couple in the years to come!

Outside of work, Matt and his family have led an amazing life of exploration and adventure. They spend time biking, climbing, hiking, skiing, mountaineering, pack rafting, and volunteering for Scouting America. We feel pretty lucky that they traded the Alaska wilderness for Central Oregon and can’t wait to see where their adventures take them next!
