After Stagg I started working on my degree at MVCC, I eventually transferred to ISU to finish my degree in Early Childhood ED with an endorsement in Special Ed. I picked up and moved up north in 1996 to Lindenhurst,IL to work as a Special Ed. teacher and work on my Master's Degree in Education but eventually decided to move back to the old neighborhood when my sister Julie starting having kids. I love being an Aunt of a fabulous nephew who is now 7 and a niece who is almost 6. I bought a townhouse in Tinley Park and found a job working in South Holland as a Special Ed. teacher in a school for children with severe disabilities and loved it. I also work as a Developmental Therapist for the State of Il, working with children under the age of 3 who have been diagnosed with disabilities in their homes. I stayed there until January of 07--- that's when I was in a pretty bad car accident (not my fault!! :). I am still recovering from back and neck injuries. It is slow going, but hopefully I will be able to go back to the work that I love soon!!
