In addition I am a Crisis Prevention and Intervention (CPI) trainer, a trainer for Michigan's Statewide Autism Resources and Training (START) and active board member for the regional collaborative network West MAC.

Additional biographical information

Wife to the love of my life- Jon, who supports my wild ideas, or at least quietly stands by and lets me learn from my mistakes, and most importantly keeps me laughing along the way. He is the mac to my cheese. Mother to three spirited kids- a boy teen, a boy tween, and the bookend girl. We embrace chaos and adventures with our great Dane Lucy, house cat Chloe, Amazon parrot Diego, two mini ponies, countless chickens, two lion head rabbits, and two barn cats. Plenty of hobbies to full-fill my retirement dreams: rock hunting, reading, writing, repurposing/DIY, painting, knitting, teaching Sunday School, travel adventures, camping, and beach nights with my two best friends.
