Myotonic Dystrophy Coach
​
Ann Woodbury has always had a lot of energy and passion, especially where her family is concerned. So, when her husband and four children were diagnosed with a rare disease – Myotonic Dystrophy (DM) — in 1998, she channeled her energy and passion into understanding the disease and its effects on her family.
Ann has a Bachelor’s degree in Family and Child Relationships from the University of Utah. She is a part-time specialist for Salt Lake County Extension, answering nutrition and food safety questions from the public.
In addition, Ann ran a statewide support group for people with DM for 10 years. She is passionate about educating others, both caregivers and sufferers, about DM and its devastating effects.
Ann’s hobbies include practicing yoga, watching select TV series with her husband, going to plays, making jewelry, cooking foods with good taste and nutrition, yard work and gardening
Ann will be happy to speak to PTA meetings, wellness groups, MOMs groups, teacher’s associations, chamber, Kiwanis. etc.
