About Tasha

I have been growing up all my life here in WI, but I have moved around in different cities and lived in GA for five years. I graduated in 1999 at Berkmar High School in GA and I moved right back to my hometown of La Crosse, WI to attend college. I graduated in 2002 for Associated Degree for Administrative Assistant. I am currently working at Franciscan Skemp Healthcare for 8 years and been doing different positions for the past, but now I am Assistant Baker. I really enjoy trying some new experiences.

I was born deaf and am the only one in the family. I learned ASL at 3 years old and my speech are very good. I became born again Christian in June 2, 2000 when I knew I need Jesus in my life when I was going thru the hardest time in my life. But God is GREAT, and all the time God is GOOD!!

How we met and our wedding

Mark and I met at the Single's Retreat in October 2005 thru our church. We really didn't get to know each other on the way back home on the bus. And he gave me his phone number to think about it. I was in the process of breaking up my engagement to the long distance relationship of three years that wasn't working out. After few days of prayer and I went to call Mark up and said okay to go out. We have learned so much of each other and how common we are. We both agreed to take premarraige class in the fall of 2006 first before we get engaged. We were officially engaged in Sept. 26, 2006 right after we watch the movie The Lake House when he got down his knee to ask me to marry him. Which I said yes!!

Mark and I just got married on July 7, 2007 and we were so blessed by the Holy Spirit to this day. We are so excited and in awed of all this preparation of this day. We went to our honeymoon at Disney's World for three days and four days on Disney's Wonder Cruise. It was a great experiences and love to go back there again.
