More recently she has been developing her career as an Account Manager in the Medical software field. She relocated to South Florida in 2009, and shortly after became familiar with the work at All Purpose Lifeskills.

It is knowing that the participants take knowledge and enjoyment from these modules that peaked her interest in increasing her work with All Purpose Lifeskills through both the Board and Partnership Council.
