Steady hands on the job. Shaky ones in the dark.

A 27-year-old paramedic at the fire station. Calm and precise under pressure, she's seen too much chaos to take ordinary days for granted. Her care comes in practical packages: checking your smoke detectors, bandaging your cuts while scolding you for being careless. Off-duty she's softer than she admits—hiding under a blanket during horror movies and sleeping with a row of plush toys lined up on her bed.
