Hands on Learning

I wasn’t born into a family that was sports oriented. But I was involved in a good amount of physical learning. As a child though, my introverted personality had me step back from the performing arts. It wasn’t until age 18, that I felt more comfortable to engage in goal-oriented physical activities. Activities like dance, music, stage performances. 

I enjoy hands on learning. It hasn’t always been the way that was most available to me. Most of my education was book and standard testing based. My career choices have reflected my love for interaction and engaging activities. Almost 30 years ago, I became a dental assistant, this was during high school, when I took vocational training. When I moved to the city of Seattle, I started taking ballet classes at a studio near where I lived. I then continued dancing through college until I had my second son. When I moved to Cincinnati Ohio, I got a job in the culinary arts. I enjoyed working with food and moved on to become an assistant pastry chef and cake decorator. 

I few years later I became a caretaker for my grandmother. She and I became very close and I realized this was something I was good at, being a caretaker. I enjoyed taking care of her and styling her hair and makeup. When she passed away I decided to go to cosmetology school, where I learned skills in hair design, nail care and skin care. This led to another discovered interest in medical massage. So, 5 years after graduating from cosmetology school I also became a massage therapist. 

Currently, I have been enjoying work at a salon and spa, where I can provide many health and wellness services. I enjoy being hands on in helping others and caring for them. This year 2021, I have decided to return to college and finish nursing school. My career pursuit in the health sciences started more than 20 years ago. Now that my children are grown, I’m excited to be able to have another chance to pursue this passion of using my hands and heart to help others.
