April Burgess Given

I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Fine Art in 1985 from UC. I took a visual merchandising job for 2 years, began working on my Masters at MU. I managed my father's business for 13 years. I met my husband in 1994 and we were married in 1995. In 1999 I completed a program in massage therapy and began teaching Kinesiology for the Mountain State School of Massage. I taught for 2 years while building a clientelle for my massage practice. In 2003 I moved my practice in with Dr. Jarrod Chapman D.O. I closed my practice in 2005 due to a shoulder injury. I currently work at my art studio making jewelry and doing portraits. I also do the bookwork for my husband's company. I do interior design work, flip houses, and do consulting work and staging for people trying to sell their own homes. Most importantly, I love my God and serve Him daily.
