NEW JERSEY WOMAN AMERICA’S BEST HANDWASHER

MONTCLAIR, N.J. (Wireless Flash) – A woman who has just been declared “America’s Best Handwasher” doesn’t mind if you give her a hand – as long as it’s a clean one. Michelle Samarya-Timm recently won the coveted honor by having the most germ-free hands in a “Handwashing Olympics” sponsored by a paper towel manufacturer. The 36-year-old health inspector credits her success to the rigorous method she learned when she was five: Wash your hands for as long as it takes you to sing “Happy Birthday” twice. For her handy efforts, Samarya-Timm received a Gold Medal from Kimberly- Clark and she plans to celebrate her success like other sports champions – with a trip to Disney World.
