Only few people knew about me

Before I established Workplus in 1989, I was an educator for children with special needs. I used to organize and run competitions also participated at international competitions as Support Group Leader. Even before that, as a teenager - she thought kids with hydrophobia (for 6 years) how to swim. She believes those years gave her a solid foundation to that person, who she can be today.
