Subject: [Ohio-Talk] Update on Life

Hello everyone
I know I do not email everyone about my life. I am a private person but I wanted to share some news I have had happen recently.


  1.  I have gotten a new job working at my local YMCA. I am working at the French Creek Family YMCA in Avon Ohio. I am very excited to have this job because it is a tiny step in my future plans to work in the fitness field and bring fitness more to people with disabilities. I am still working on getting my Health Coaching certification. This does not mean that I can not give someone advice on their health. I have a degree in Health Coaching if anyone would like to have a session with me. I am not trying to sell services but I want to get this information out since health services are hard for people with disabilities  to find. I have finished earning the degree but am waiting for it to be put in my hand in the spring. I have been told that I can do Health Coaching but if I want to be hired to do it for a business I need my certification. I am working with several organizations to try and complete this. This has been a horrible journey but I am working on it.



  1.  I am graduating with two associates in the spring. The degrees I am earning are Sports and Fitness Management and Health and Wellness Coaching/Promotion. Both of these are Associates of Applied Sciences. I have already made my spring schedule and registered for graduation. This is a huge accomplishment for me since I am first generation college. I am planning to go and earn my Bachelors of Exercise Science in the Fall of 2025.


  1.  I have been inducted into my local Lions club this past Thursday. I made a presentation about my guide dog to them in September and have been attending meetings when I can. They have accepted me as a member. I would be interested in who else are Lions members and how do you participate in your club.



That is all from me now.

Yours Truly,

Asia Quinones-Evans
