Summary

I worked in the medical field for over 20 years. I have been doing foster care for over 4 years now. I am very active with Headstart since we have received permanent guardianship of 2 of the little girls we had in foster care. I also served on the policy board for Headstart for 5 years. Back in the early 2000 I had ran my own daycare with the military but quit once we moved back home. I have worked at the daycare I'm at off & on for a few years now.
