Matt Shepherd’s journey from being a disinterested student who hated study and failed year eleven, to Mica Flight Paramedic (the highest qualification in Ambulance Victoria), University Lecturer, TV regular (on ‘Paramedics’) and highly respected medical professional with multiple degrees and post-graduate qualifications, is fascinating. Matt’s story exemplifies what can be achieved when passion, inspiration, hard work and the right mindset collide. Enjoy.
