Galen College nursing student Lesly Arroyo-Peña was in the right place at the right time. She was on her way back to class from lunch when she got stuck in traffic, But that was a good thing, because she saw why; a man lying in the road. Lesly said she recognized signs of an overdose and fortunately had Narcan in her car.

That’s why Lesly is What’s Good in Tampa Bay! Nominate someone like that by tagging Ann Kelly at @1055thedove or at ann.kelly@1055thedove.
