| Introduction | I have two Master's Degrees-a Master of Arts in Teaching and a Master's Degree in Urban Policy and Public Administration. I have worked in non-profit organizations and as a lobbyist at the Colorado Legislature. My last and most enjoyable job was being the Patient Advocate at a large hospital. Today, I am a certified geriatric care manager in partnership with Kay Parker. Our company is "Compassionate Care Managers." I am also a certified Senior Transition Specialist (a Senior Move Manager) and my company is "Making Moves Easy." I am the proud mother of four grown sons. I have a 7-year old grandson, 4 year-old twins, and a new little granddaughter, almost 6 months old. I have three dogs of my own and one 34 year-old red-eared slider (he's a turtle). I also have three grandcats and five granddogs. |
