Michael Petraka, who will be sharing his story of a critical incident that he went through.

I hope you could find some value so without further ado.

Mike, thanks for being here.

Thanks for having me.

Anyway, without further ado, Mike, give me a little history of yourself.

will lead into the incident that occurred.

Sure.
