Career Change After 15 Years - Writing My Story for the Milton Hershey School

With the support of my husband and kids, I have recently made a career change! It is a bit bizarre, after houseparenting for 15 years, to now be the only one who leaves the house in the morning.

While I still work at the Milton Hershey School, I am now one of the writers for our school curriculum. The curriculum that I am writing is social and emotional learning and character and leadership development. It is a mouthful, indeed, and it speaks to the enormity of the journey I have just embarked upon.

While I feel like this is overwhelming, it really is my life calling. I have grown to be a teacher of children, but I don't teach academic lessons, (except when I homeschooled by children). But I have always taught life lessons. I am excited to use this journey to continue to tell my own story to a larger MHS audience!

My pursuit of faith is paying off in ways that I never dreamed.

Wish me luck!
