Meet the Owner

 

Michael (Mike) Jarrous

Michael lives with his beautiful family in Bonsall California. He has been blessed with a supportive wife, Lindsey, whom enjoys running the family business together. They have two amazing daughters, Brinlee and Abigail. Michael was born and raised in the area and is proud to call Bonsall home.

He is the owner of PROTERA CPR. One of his life missions, through PROTERA, is to educate people on the value of learning how to provide quality CPR and First Aid. Michael earned his 200 hour Emergency Medical Technician Basic (EMT-B) from Crafton Hills College in 2012. Later that year he passed the National Registry for EMT’s. He is recognized as a certified Instructor for CPR/AED/BLS and First Aid training through the American Heart Association, The American Red Cross and The Health and Safety institute. His journey as an instructor began in 2008.  

As an educator, Michael currently teaches Emergency Medical Education courses at the collegiate level, has coached collegiate athletes, has mentored youth, and has given much of his adult life to teaching and creating a positive impact in the lives of others.

His success as an educator can largely be attributed to the exceptional coaches, mentors, family, and friends who continue to serve as his driving inspiration.  Above all, Michael gives thanks to God for placing him on earth to inspire others through education.
