MarvetteHName: Marvette Hochstetler

Agency: CMU Early Intervention

Role: Early Intervention Service Coordinator

Years worked in EI: 15

Favorite pastime: playing games with my husband and teen girls; watching movies with family; love riding motorcycle with my husband

Favorite children’s book: when I was a child I loved reading a 2 book series called: All About God and All About Heaven; when reading to my daughter (who is now 16) we loved reading God Made You a Beautiful Brown or Good Night Moon.

Favorite toy as a child: homemade marble roller; playing with dishes, kitchen, and table having play dates with my doll babies

The best part about working in EI is: Being able to give assistance to families and children; to see the expression on everyone’s face when the child succeeds.
