- When I am not working with children. I enjoy playing with my dogs Jackson my Collie, and Cash, my Golden. After spending time with them rug hooking takes up my time. And every Saturday morning, you will find me volunteering at the nearby horse rescue: Central New England Equine Rescue. Just caring and loving those horses.
