CPR Instructors

 Nilo Deguiera brings nearly two decades of U.S. Navy medical and leadership experience to HTX Health Solutions, with a strong background in training, mentorship, and hands-on instruction. As an experienced CPR/AED, First Aid, BLS, and emergency medical instructor, he is passionate about making medical education practical, engaging, and easy to apply when it matters most. His military career has sharpened his ability to teach under pressure, communicate clearly, and prepare others with the confidence and skills needed to respond in real-world situations. Outside of instruction, Nilo is an avid professional wrestling fan, enjoys bodybuilding and strength training, and loves cooking for family and friends. 

Kelsey Banta has been teaching CPR since 2021 and enjoys helping others build confidence in lifesaving skills. She served in the U.S. Navy from 2017 to 2024 as a Hospital Corpsman, where she gained hands-on medical experience and a strong appreciation for teamwork, preparedness, and service. Outside of work, she enjoys reading, writing mini research papers on random topics that interest her, and learning new skills (aka collecting different hobbies). She is proud to bring both her military background and passion for education into a

 veteran-owned company.
