Taking care of patients as a surgical assistant was my first experience in helping and protecting the vulnerable. I worked for a Facial Cosmetic and Oral Maxillofacial Surgeon for 6 years. I switched gears and decided to work with children before truly realizing the importance it would have in my life. I was a Pre-K Teacher for 10 years before the next step of becoming a Music Teacher. Teaching children how to play the piano, ukulele, sing and write their own music is my new favorite gift to share with the world.
