Train dogs professionally for pet, therapy-work, and show (get paid $100-5000 per job). Currently raising future guide-dog puppy.
-Piano for 12 years. Played competitively winning/placing high at local/state/regional competitions and giving local concerts until a serious hand injury from practicing too much at age 13. Had chance at Julliard and a life as a concert pianist before injury. Took break, hand somewhat better, now play for selective youth orchestra and was selected to go tour Europe and give concerts next spring.
-Art and Photography. Practiced various art medias for 12 years winning local/state/regional competitions, and even had one piece displayed at some museum in New York for winning gold key award. Now pretty much switched to photography, and run a small but successful photography business.

<p>-Reach schools: Middlebury & Vanderbilt.
