I am a former mental health worker, CNA and Behavioral Therapist. I've worked with special needs children, teens and adults and co-patented three adopted children, one with special needs and one with learning disabilities for 10 years. Education- BA from University of Texas in Austin, Major areas- Sociology and Business. AP'd out of required courses so I have minors in History, Science, English and Theatre. I retired early due to an accident with a Murphy Bed so no heavy lifting. I am a theatrical judge, EDI Facilitator, writer and lifetime learner. Non-smoker and require a smoke free environment. I train dogs and I am fine with pets. I've taken numerous First Aid and CPR courses. I will be happy to provide my DOT background check, DMV record, shot record and car insurance. I look forward to speaking to you soon! -Toni

    Toni arrived on time to pick me up for my dental surgery and was able to quickly find her way to the building where the offices were located. Once we arrived I found that there would be a delay but I hardly noticed as Toni kept chatting and generally keeping me in a good mood. Once the surgery was complete and the sedation was wearing off Toni allowed that she had managed to grab some ice cream from a local eatery while I was in surgery. This really hit the spot as I could not handle solid food yet. Overall the experience was very pleasant and although I will never enjoy going to the dentist this was as painless as possible. Oh, and if you get to meet little Toby he is just an enthusiastic ball of good energy.
