Additional Information
In 2009, I faced significant medical issues that prevented me from working full-time. My husband and I decided it was best for me to stay home for a while. However, in 2014, my husband passed away unexpectedly, making it clear that I needed to work part-time. I have always taken pride in my work and enjoyed the mental challenge it provides.
