I have been married for 25 years, and have two teenage daughters. Although I enjoy social gatherings in small doses, I am more of an introvert (I prefer working one-on-one, or in small groups). Outside the office, I consider myself an avid reader, recreational runner\/weight lifter, and part-time gardener. I am active in my church and enjoy watching my daughters in their activities (dance, TaeKwonDo, and marching band).","url":"https:\/\/www.creativesolutionsonline.org\/rebuild-csbh-sit\/author\/drjtad1f55393d6\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/paPoUL-eX","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.creativesolutionsonline.org\/rebuild-csbh-sit\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/927","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.creativesolutionsonline.org\/rebuild-csbh-sit\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.creativesolutionsonline.org\/rebuild-csbh-sit\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.creativesolutionsonline.org\/rebuild-csbh-sit\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.creativesolutionsonline.org\/rebuild-csbh-sit\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=927"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.creativesolutionsonline.org\/rebuild-csbh-sit\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/927\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.creativesolutionsonline.org\/rebuild-csbh-sit\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=927"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.creativesolutionsonline.org\/rebuild-csbh-sit\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=927"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.creativesolutionsonline.org\/rebuild-csbh-sit\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=927"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
