I have been a teacher of special education students for 10 years. Teaching in this field has TAUGHT me many, many things: perseverance, patience, the amazing power of the human spirit, a never-give-up attitude, the knowledge that no matter what the disability, expectations should be high and never compromised...the list goes on and on.
I love teaching; it's who I am and what I do above all else. I have been a teacher of special education students for 10 years.

I love teaching; it's who I am and what I do above all else. I love network marketing because I get to teach others and empower them every day if they only choose to apply what they are taught.
I love being a coach, a mentor, and being part of a team of like-minded individuals. My expertise besides special education is in communications, relationship building, team enrichment, goal setting, motivation and mentoring. I would love to talk with you about your dreams and goals!
I have 3 children (although they are not "children" anymore)! My oldest son is 21 and is in the Navy, my daughter is 18 and is a senior, and my "baby" is 15 and will be driving soon!
I love travel, fitness, reading, coaching, teaching, spending time with my family, and continue to work part time with children with special needs.
The hardest part for me is entering the "before" part...it's SO much easier to kind of hide your head in the sand and not admit to yourself that you have work to do. I mean I look ok in clothes and I am very active, but I tend to think that because of that, it gives me a "free pass" to eat whatever (and drink) I want, whenever I want. WRONG! So I joined Beach Body to be accountable, make changes and hopefully encourage others to do the same.

I never had weight issues until my 1st child was born. I had gestational diabetes and an emergency c-section (not a bikini cut, unfortunately!). After 2 more children and 2 more c-sections and back surgery, I was depressed and had no time to focus any energy on me.
I decided to take back some control of my life and reentered college to study for my teaching degree. I had spare time between classes, and since the drive home was too long, I started going to the gym at the college. A whole new world opened up for me. I expanded my social circle, got involved in other activities and finally "found" myself again. When I finished college, I had lost almost 30 lbs. I have managed to lose another 10-15 in that time by joining my local gym, playing volleyball, and chasing after kids!
I would still like to lose another 20-25 lbs. (those same 10 keep coming back!)and continue to tone and tighten as much as possible. I have the ups and downs that I think we all experience, but I am determined to get my problem areas (thighs, stomach, back of arms) toned and lean. My biggest issue is portion control...I love food!
