Tina is a past president of the Texas 9-1-1 Trainer (TNT) group and was an active member for over 15 years. Tina founded the National 9-1-1 Trainer Forum\, a forum for trainers to attend educational sessions and network with fellow trainers nationwide.

Additionally\, she has presented at multiple state and national conferences and delivered the keynote speech at one state conference. \nTina firmly believes in recognizing ECPs and urges ECCs to encourage recognition “from within.” She has a free online course and activities to assist ECCs in this mission. \nIn 2017\, Tina launched an online training site to provide relevant\, high-quality\, and low-cost training for ECPs across the United States.
