I grew up with a cousin with Downs. She showed me how happy life can be when you live it simply. I have a Master's Degree in Special Education and have worked with all different types of learners who enjoy many different lifestyles. I love celebrating life with them! I have been working in special education for over 25 years now and I still love my work. I started out of High School as a Teacher's Aide and went on to become a Professional Teacher myself. I love empowering people to become their own best version of themselves.
