As a person who loves to stay active and involved. Cooking has been a great way for me to bond with my family. It is also a great way for me to learn about different cultures as well as try new foods. I have a large collection of cook books and a frequent viewer of utube cooking videos. I love to get to the great outdoors to walk. I also ride my stationary bike while working out with weights. Gardening is also another way I get exercise. I am attempting to growing vegetables and propagating plants. As a life long student reading assist with broadening my horizons and discovering new things. When comes to arts and crafts I turn to Pinterest , instructional books and videos. I re-paint over old canvas, sketch on my art pad, turn recyclables and old clothes into art and craft projects.

Additional Information

I have worked in childcare facilities, working from the infant classrooms up to pre-k. I have also worked with children in foster care and children and adults in direct care facilities.
