I am 36 years old and married to my wonderful husband of 6 years. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat, which are my life! I currently do not have children but do dream of having a child someday. I graduated from Texas Tech University with a degree in Recreation Therapy. I am also a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist and have over 14 years of experience working with adults and children with various disabilities. I currently work 1:1 providing Recreation Therapy and Aquatic Therapy for the special needs population. I also work part time at Bachman Therapeutic Recreation Center with the Adult Day Program. I am trained in CPR and Nonviolent Crisis Intervention. I am also fluent in American Sign Lanugage. It is my passion and calling in life to work with special people! :-)
