William Fahy
William Fahy is a full-time paramedic based in Ireland. After helping on countless cardiac arrest responses, he noticed a pattern: most people don’t know where to find nearby AEDs. William built an AED Locator app using Google Sheets and Retool, and he manages a database of thousands of life-saving AEDs all over Ireland as a one-person team.
