Meet-A-Medic: Eric Gordon, Commander

Hello, I’m Eric Gordon, currently serving as the Safety Commander for Austin Travis County EMS. I have worked for ATCEMS for 15 years and have been in my current role just over a year. I have spent the majority of time working within the Special Operations division, and I was fortunate enough to spend 5 years as an Academy Captain. Additionally, I am on the ATCEMS Honor Guard, a Technical Search Specialist with Texas Task Force-1, and involved with the Emergency Medical Task Force program. I have an amazing wife and a wonderful 7-year-old daughter. You can find us playing in a pool somewhere, hiking, camping, in the garden, boating, working out, or enjoying some great food on a patio
