Lynn Sorensen, Critical Care EMT
MedFleet 

Lynn Sorensen grew up in the small town of Richlands, North Carolina, just 20 miles from Camp Lejeune Marine Corps Base. His journey began at the age of 14, when a local marine from the Haws Run Fire Department invited him on a fire call. This pivotal experience ignited a lifelong passion for firefighting and emergency services, steering him towards a path of purpose.

Not long after, Lynn became a North Carolina EMT. Driven by an unyielding dedication to service, he joined the Army Infantry and bravely cross-trained as a combat medic. Between deployments, Lynn’s commitment to his community continued as he founded the Onslow County Search and Rescue team. But he didn't stop there—he also conquered the Army's Special Forces selection, emerging as a weapons sergeant with advanced trauma training.

After his time in the Army, Lynn relocated to Florida to embark on an exciting new chapter with his supportive wife and family, where he now serves with Medfleet Ambulance Services. Lynn's ambitious spirit is unwavering as he sets his sights on achieving his paramedic certification and aspires to take on a leadership role in his community.

Lynn Sorensen's journey is a testament to his relentless dedication to public service, continuous professional growth, and a commitment to making a positive impact on his community. His story is one of bravery, passion, and an unbreakable spirit.
