Hazel Whitt needed a boost. Unable to work due to an injury, Hazel was feeling a bit down on her luck. After a career as a health inspector, this grandmother of two from Austell found herself searching for her "what's next".

Hazel was interested, but going back to school after 40 years when finances were tight didn't seem like a possibility.
