One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed a mountain in West Virginia where you can look out on FIVE STATES-- Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky. Worked with toddlers who have trust issues, family issues, speech impediments and learning issues. Made Autistic students smile daily by sharing music with them (Started a program with my band director in high school to have the SECEP Students join us on percussion instruments). Built playgrounds for little kids with cancer. Walked entire Appalachain Trail--which is 26 miles. Saved a scared dog from a very scary owner.
