She also acquired her Bachelor of Arts degree in sociology and social work from the University of Akron, during that time. She then worked for a private agency as a social worker and team member, performing Medicaid nursing home reviews throughout northeastern Ohio for three years. As she began her family she returned to college at Kent State University, obtaining her Master’s degree in Education with a specialty area of rehabilitation counseling. While there she worked as a rehabilitation counselor for one year. In relocating to Columbus, Ohio, she worked for the State of Ohio for twenty four years, as a vocational rehabilitation counselor with disabled individuals.
