Had a lot of fun and plan on having more fun instructing in the future.  I have  been a Registered Medical Assistant for 22 years, working in a physicians office in McAllen TX for ten years and another physicians office in Grand Junction CO for 12 years.  In high school I wanted to be a math or science teacher and when I was in the hospital giving birth to my first daughter became intrigued with the idea of being a nurse.  I went to medical assisting college and loved it!  After a few years I decided to try getting my nursing degree and when it came time to devote all my time to nursing and would have to quit a wonderful full time job in a physicians office I decided that it really wasn't for me so I kept my job and have never looked back.  After 12 years in the last physicians office I was ready for a change but not so much of a change from the medical field so now I have my high school dream of being a teacher and staying in the medical field.
