Founder & Instructor
Dean Martin
Certified CPR and First Aid Instructor
Dean Martin is a certified CPR and First Aid instructor with a hands-on background in emergency response, fire service training, EMT education, and high-risk work environments where safety decisions matter.
He founded Samson Strong CPR with a straightforward mission: make quality CPR and First Aid training accessible and affordable for everyone — individuals who need a certificate for work, and organizations that need to certify their entire team without the scheduling headache of in-person classes.
