While the COVID-19 pandemic was spent sheltering indoors away from others, it helped spur a passion in emergency services for Binghamton University seniors Joshua Ackerman and Yoav Reshef. Now years removed from the high school days that marked the start of their foray into becoming EMTs, the two are working to make life easier for emergency service workers.
