After graduating from college and an adventure in California, she found what she thought would be her dream job working as a social worker in Eastern Kentucky helping families that included children with disabilities, but her insecurities returned and overwhelming stress intervened.

She went back to school twice to be retrained for other jobs. Despite her difficulties communicating, Tina decided to devote her energies to advocating for the full inclusion of people with disabilities in American society. This is a story of persistence and passion with a few twists and turns along the way. Somehow, even an episode of Family Feud is involved.As as a senior citizen who has lived through many setbacks, Tina hopes her story will help someone who is facing their own road bumps in life, especially young people. She wants to help the next generation to be strong, creative, and productive.…
