Beyond the Badge

Dealing with the challenges of today’s society and balancing everyday life requires problem-solvers who bring different perspectives and are willing to take risks.

Angela rusan

CEO/Founder/Sociologist

The concept P.A.A.L.S. was initially developed in 2019, based on my personal experiences, trials, and tribulations throughout my career as a Public Servant. I have been in the Public Safety sector for 10 years with experience as Emergency Medical Dispatcher & Emergency Medical Technician Basic.

I have worked in one of the busiest urban fire department districts within the United States. I received my Bachelor’s in Science degree in Sociology; with a minor in Criminal Justice from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (May 2010) .

I have always been passionate about about helping and inspiring others. Serving the community while attempting to build interpersonal relationships with my colleagues to provide resources came with its own challenges. But it has proven too be rewarding and a testimony I am ready to share.

Consistency, trustworthy, compassionate are just a words that come to mind when thinking about my characteristics.
