I went back to school to become a teacher when my son was 8 months old.  I wanted to teach math and science. I  studied computer science and l graduated with my degree in Computer Science. I became an educator, but eventually switched careers to become a software engineer where I truly enjoyed the challenges the field posed.  I love to see  how everything works!

I received my Bachelor's Degree from Idaho University.  I received my Teaching Certification and I am also certified in Writing, SQE Foundations for testing. 

I have become adept at maintaining a positive attitude despite the challenges being a woman in this field poses. 

I have a great gift of being able to to take things apart and put them back together. I am a problem solver and I have a positive, can do attitude.

Personally my greatest accomplishment is my three grown children who are all self sufficient, nice people. Professionally it is being where I am at right now in life, and being a positive influence in both the work place. 

To continue to grow both personally and professionally and mentor women to grow withing in the Technical Field. 

My husband and I have faced some loss and challenges along the way, and we have learned that seizing each day and for the gift it is keeps us going forward. 

Being a kind person who taught and was kind in service and helped people to become successful. 

I love reading the most! I enjoy playing the flute and singing and participating and seeing musical productions and crocheting.
