Originally from Pennsylvania, my husband and I left the Keystone State in 1980 for an opportunity to live abroad.  For 17 years we lived in Korea, the Azores, the Philippines and Japan while raising our two children.  Returning to the States in 1997, I began my career in Senior Living, starting out as a Wellness Director and eventually moving on to Sales and Marketing.  My spare time finds me enjoying my family, working out at the gym or organizing a pet food distribution program for needy families in South Bryan County.
