I have a BS in Applied Learning and Development, or teaching for short. I have been teaching bilingual third grade for six years.

Wow, we have some smart cookies on here.

I work for a telecom company doing reporting/metrics for our field offices.

I am self employed as a professional costume maker and seamstress. I specialize in making replicas of famous costumes. (Some of my feats are various Star Wars costumes-including full stormtrooper armor system, The entire Addams family, Wizard of Oz characters, Cinderella, etc.) I also am a custom costume designer for Middle Eastern dancers. :)

My "second" occupation is being a Middle Eastern dancer and a member of a dance troupe, and a local vendor for Middle Eastern dance supplies and costumes.

I've been a records clerk for a police dept for almost 6 years (started right out of high school). I will be starting school in Sept. to become a massage therapist.

I have a two batchelors degrees - one in biology and one in nursing. I worked full-time nights for 5 years at a rehab center (physical rehab not substance abuse) but burned out. Am now working in the same rehab facility, but in the office completing assessments and working with the insurance companies on reimbursement - much more my speed. However, much less physically demanding so it's harder to keep the weight off. Oh well...

I'm in school right now, majoring in finance, then going on to get my MBA.
