I started working in childcare when my daughter was one. She is now 24. Over the years, I have worked at five different preschools. I have two passions, one is children and the other is media. I have an Associate Degree associate in Radio/Television Broadcasting Technology. In 2012, I combined those two passions, and started a kids club called Knucklebones Creative Kids Club, which is designed for kids (5-13) to discover their world creatively. Within the club, we also have video shorts called KCKC on air where the kids are the producers and hosts!! Children keep me young and always give me unconditional love.
