I am '42' and a life-long caregiver. Starting at age 10, I earned my first certification as a "Pro-sitter" from All-Children's WAY back in the late 80's. Having a decade between siblings, and being the oldest, I got an early start. Right around that same time my mom finally gave in to my incessant begging for a dog, and I've had at least one ever since. Honestly, I couldn't imagine life without pets and kids (j/k - I lived on campus for 4 years at the University of Tampa). I currently hold 2 Florida Teaching Certificates for ART and Early Childhood Education. I also currently have 2 sons who attend 2 different schools on the other side of town. I have taken the 2021-22 school year off due to impossible logistics of chauffeuring plus working full-time in the classroom. I look forward to branching out and networking with my local Read more community as I push forth with my next endeavor as a creative artist/entrepreneur. I consider myself a Jill of All Trades because I enjoy learning and doing almost anything. In addition to 2 school-age boys and 5 pets at home, I have renovation projects going on inside & outside as well as a 1991 Celica to restore. I am passionate about nature, teaching, and public service. I am energetic and love to inspire others! Finally, I have a clean driving record with a valid license & vehicle. You will find zero, zip, zill on a criminal background check. My skill set is as diverse as our community. I have just as much to offer as you have for me to learn from. I know the Tampa Bay area well, and it never ceases to amaze me, especially with all the changes happening in Pinellas.
