Carmine Fiore is a retired FDNY-EMS first responder and U.S. Army National Guard combat medic with over a decade of frontline experience. After years of exposure to trauma, Carmine confronted PTSD and addiction while navigating the culture and pressures of emergency services.

His work focuses on honest conversations that reduce stigma, encourage early intervention, and remind first responders that they don’t have to suffer in silence.
