Tammy's Biography
Royal Australian Air Force Engineer
Tammy enlisted in the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) in 1990 and became an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer. She maintained a wide variety of aircraft from Winjeels, then Hercules and finally Caribous Aircraft.
One of the very few females in a male dominated environment was challenging and Tammy found she constantly had to prove herself. Among many challenges, she completed training runs in Iroquoi Helicopters whilst under attack from Hawk Aircraft, and carried out a 4 week Survival Course with Navy Clearance Divers. She learnt survival priority, how to stay alive in different terrains, learning how to secure food shelter and water. However, her biggest challenge was found deep in the jungles of Papua New Guinea… Kokoda Trail In September, 2008, Tammy conquered one of the world’s most arduous physical challenges. She completed the Kokoda Trail with 144 elite SAS soldiers. She was the only female invited on the trek – a thank you for her dedication to always keeping her Aircraft in peak mechanical condition.
During the 8-day journey, Tammy found a level of strength and determination she never knew she had. She now knows if you have a dream and defined goals, faith and determination, you can achieve almost anything in your life. She lives by her motto, “Never say never”. During her RAAF career, she was presented with the Active and Long Service Medals and Personal Qualities and Commanding Officer’s Awards. |
However, a near-fatal tragedy was soon to change the course of Tammy’s life… A New Career In October, 2007, Tammy’s 16 month old son almost drowned. Due to the RAAF’s mandatory CPR Training she was able to save Carson’s life. After almost losing her son this experience had a profound effect on Tammy. She knew life would never be the same again.
She soon discovered that many of her friends did not possess the skills of CPR or First Aid Training. So, after 17 years of service in a career she loved, Tammy left the RAAF to follow her new-found passion – to help others learn the skills to save a life. She now delivers CPR/First Aid training to loyal clients. This Training and assessment delivered on behalf of Allens Training Pty Ltd RTO 90909 First Aid Yu Can2 Tammy uses the passion & experience gained from her personal experience with Carson’s near-drowning and the skills learnt in the RAAF for others to relate, to educate,empower & deliver Training to her clients. Tammy also utilises accelerated learning techniques to enable clients to retain the information more effectively and thus better protect their loved ones.

when my dear Dad aka (Pop) was having a heart attack when I was in year 11 at School!
I’d just learnt what heart attack was & the symptoms to look out for !
Literally that day I arrived home from School to see my Pop experiencing one!
At that stage, his mate had known he was not well but did not identify heart attack so popped him in his car & drove him from his work to home .. which was at least 20 minutes.. then brought him inside the house as tine was ticking ... when I arrived .. noticed , called 000 & treated him for heart attack !
That saved his life !
But ....
Because of the heart attack happening for so long prior .. the oxygenated blood was blocked & could not go back to his heart which caused Permanent, unrepairable damage, so he could never work again !
His life & our life changed forever !
I’m not a hero but what I did that day did save my Dads life then !
Something you can learn by attending a cpr class also & that could be the most valuable thing you ever do as we don’t plan incidents.. these examples show us that they can happen at any time to absolutely anyone !
They are so affordable & you gain a nationally recognised Certificate as a result!
If you don’t feel confident you don’t have to do cpr but at least you can them identify & know to call 000 as soon as you notice symptoms to give them a better chance of survival & long term damage as my Dad experienced!
First Aid YUCAN2 my Company runs experience based using accelerated learning to anchor the information where we laugh, we cry .. it’s high energy & we have fun but most importantly we anchor the information so you have tools in your toolbox should you ever need to help save a life !
Imagine, like me if it were your loved one & no one attempted ?
How would you feel ?
I’m so blessed that once again divine energy intervened & I was there & could save my Dad at that time because being a teenager without my Dad would have not been nice !
That happened for me so I could have another powerful story to share & even though he could never work again because of it, I was so blessed to still have him in my life for many years after to guide , love & support me!
Consider booking in some training now as it is most definitely the best , must Affordable gift you can give to yourself !
I saved a life ..
