Family

I have been blessed with two absolutely wonderful sons - Chris, who is a corporate lighting director for some of the major shows in Branson, Missouri. He is quite a dashing young man and I am extremely proud of him; and Corey, who is married to the very sweet and wonderful Amanda. They have two handsome sons and a beautiful daughter: Cody Allen, 5, Ty Marshall, 3, and Abigail Reese, 7 months. Sometimes it's hard to believe that I'm a grandma!

My sister Cindy, who has lived in Clearwater since 1994, brought my dad back from Ft.Worth, Texas, to live with her after our mother passed away in March of 2000. Those two nagged me until I finally decided to make the move from Texas to Florida, and I must say that I have not regretted it for a single moment! This is paradise ... just look around you.

My passion is working in the design field, and consistently strive to gain new knowledge and techniques. My goal is to be a productive and creative member of a design team in which I can grow and develop my skills in graphic and multimedia design. It's quite exciting to see ideas and concepts come to life in many different ways, and with the rapid development of technology, it can only get better.
