The emotional reality behind competence, composure, and the uniform.
Books & writing

Debut memoir

Beginning with his first healthcare job at seventeen and continuing through Level I trauma emergency nursing, PTSD, severe depression, treatment, and leadership, Christopher tells the story without a heroic ending or a manufactured recovery.
