Tina lives in Colorado and has been an AAPC member since 1994 and certified since 1997.

School days, school days

Dear old golden rule days 

Readin' and 'ritin' and 'rithmetic
Taught to the tune of the hickory stick…

With summer waning and the kids all back in school, aren’t you ready for a little ‘me’ time? The Nashville conference is the perfect way to kick off your school year…lots of friends and familiar faces, great classes taught by outstanding teachers, a beautiful city, and hey, even a little fun on the side! Hopefully, this is just what the doctor ordered. Either way, he’ll be impressed with the results you bring back to the office! Can’t wait to see you there…14 days…but who’s counting?
