Summary
Before becoming a staff member of the MDO program at Liberty City First Baptist Church, I was fortunate to have become a stay at home mom in 2012. Between the years of 1991 to 2012 my job experiences entailed mainly medical offices as a secretary and/or medical assistant. Within the years of 2000-2010 I worked for Gladewater ISD as a nurse assistant and secretary to maintenance. Once becoming a stay at home mom, I enjoyed volunteering in various areas of our church, including watching children in our nursery. In 2016 my first grandbaby arrived, followed by two more in 2018 and 2021. I have enjoyed being able to help in the aspect of keeping them while their parents worked. I have continued over the years of staying CPR Certified with current Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED Certification through 7/2025.
