Summary

I worked in the Emergency Medical Field for over a decade, after 9/11 my husband joined the US Army. During this time I became involved as a volunteer to support his career and keep my skills in the workforce current. In 2017 my husband was injured during a deployment. While adjusting to this transition, it was best for me to use my medical, advocacy, and organizational skills to assure he had the best transition possible from military to civilian life. In 2019, I pursued a career change and by pursuing my Bachelors Degree in Sports and Health Sciences. Anticipated completion is October 2023.
