Ingham Impact Podcast Featuring Kathy Cochran
Innovative. Advocate. Eternal Optimist. These are just a few words that come to mind when thinking about Kathy Cochran, Cosmetology Instructor at the Wilson Talent Center. No matter who you talk to the story is the same ... Kathy is committed, she loves teaching, seeing students thrive and it's demonstrated in everything she does. As Kathy would say, "I'm livin' the dream!" Thank you for all you do Kathy! You are amazing. We hope you will enjoy this video podcast about Kathy's enthusiasm and positive impact on students.  #InghamImpact

Join us on April 18 at Heartwood School. The 5K starts at 9:30am, and the Walk & Roll starts at 9:45. You can sign-up today and have plenty of time to get in shape for spring.
