About April

I'm a recently retired US Navy veteran. I served 20yrs as an administrative assistant in many different work environments. As part of my many duties in the military I ran the physical fitness/health and wellness programs. I have earned my associate's degree from University of Maryland University College and my bachelor's degree in Health Sciences from Kaplan University. I am a certified massage therapist I have worked part time for the past 10 years to learn different modalities. I'm also working to complete my certification as a personal trainer. I am also up to date on CPR/AED/First Aide. My most important job of all is carrying for my 3 children and or 16yr old birder collie mix. I am very out going, easy to talk with, and a good cook. I feel health and taste go hand and hand.
