I have one son who is 18 years old and attends Western Connecticut State University. He is a freshman and will be done soon as well. He plays football for the college as he has been playing many sports since age six. Yes, he is my only child and believe me he is enough.
My interest and passion is to help the elderly as I have been working with geriatric for at least 26 years. My major is Sociology with the interst in Gerontology.
I have worked in all aspects of the Medical field. I started as a candy stripper at the VA hospital when I was 15 years old, and then I moved on to become a Certified Nurse’s Aide, from there I had trained to become a Medical Secretary/Surgical booker for different medical specialties. My last employment was within Neurology, that Specialty was very busy.
I began to work as a case manager following my internship the summer of 2011. In the past I have worked with the elderly , who had neurological disorders such as Parkinson Disease, tremors, Dementia, and Alzheimer’s. Also people with Brain Disorders, (MS) Multiple Sclerosis, (ALS) Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Epilepsy and Seizures. Whatever had to do with the nervous system I have done it from Pediatric to Geriatrics. While working during the day I would also work in the evening assisting the elderly with homecare and companionship.
Since I have finnished my internship, I was asked to come on board with the company as a case manager. This line of work is different as I am dealing with clients with all types of mental illnesses..Although it is interesting but my heart and skills are with Gerontology.
As I mentioned my son playing all sports; Basketball, Baseball, and Football played a huge role in my daily living because my son played all three sports and this kept me on my toes. I must say I do miss the running as well as the games.But what is amazing as a mother is that I still have to try and keep a happy home (cook, clean, maintain, etc).
Some other interests that I have are shoes (I am still trying to figure out how I can make them). So maybe this Art class can teach me a lesson or two. If I could make shoes they would be called Sonya’s (LOL). Dreams can come true. But, I also love to cook, bake and watch people enjoy the food that I prepared…..this also puts me into dreaming of opening a restaurant buffet, all you can eat of what I prepared. ... I love to sew, making different clothing for son, taking trips whether it is for a day or for a week, Casinos, the winnings, and most importantly Comedy.(they say I missed my calling) as I love to laugh, make/crack jokes and keep everyone smiling/laughing.
In my down time I love to watch movies especially drama and suspense with a bowl of Maple Walnut ice cream and a blanket, who is better than me.
However; I failed to mention that I also LOVE TO EAT.
Well enough with me because I could write a book on some interesting events in my life, although I am thinking about that as well. LOL

Enjoy the class as I have took many of Prof Nevins classes and enjoyed them.
Good Luck too all and Enjoy.
