I teach one or two classes a semester on-line in Rehabilitation Science at Arkansas Tech University.
Other Comments:
I am a volunteer board member of Arkansas Rehabilitation Association. I worked as a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor for 10 years for the State of Arkansas Vocational Rehabilitation agency.
I worked at the VA for six months 2001-2002 (worse job I ever had). However, VA benefits helped me complete my undergrad degree, and to purchase my first house.
Before that I worked for the Department of Human Services for over 20 years.
I've retired twice, the first time I was allowed to purchase my time in the Air Force, which helped me get to the needed 28 years at DHS.
