Enid Schwartz
I am an RN with over 20 years teaching experience in all areas of health care. I am also a Certified Laughter Leader, certified through the World Laughter Tour. My degrees include a Masters in Nursing, Masters in Counseling, and a Ph.D in Health Psychology. Although my permanent home is in Arizona, my partner, Don, and I travel 6 months during the year in our motor home with our two four-legged buddies, a Yorkie and a Bichon Frise. Don and I have two home based businesses, and I teach on line, so life does get a bit busy.
