Cindy’s Bio

I have been in the educational and mental health field for over 25 years. I worked in group homes for developmental disabled adults and children. And later, as the program director for a vocational program--where we found jobs for persons with disabilities. My husband was an instructor at a local university, Department of Special Education. We raised two children, now aged 23 and 19. We relocated to Traverse City in 2019, when my husband changed careers after 35 years teaching and administration in mental health programs. I have training in curriculum, education, positive behavioral management, engaging curriculum. I like to stage houses, study design, make life and curriculum fun to learn and experience. Thank you!
