Attended Catholic schools from elementary school through college. After college, for one year at the local hometown local newspaper. Then went to Long Island to earn a Post-Baccalaureate Certificate to become a paralegal. Worked for a large multinational law firm in Washington, DC for five years. Moved to Virginia and earned a master’s degree from Regent University. Worked in the community with individuals seeking higher education and career goals. Married the love of my life! The last professional job was as Assistant Director of Law and Career Services at a law school--a great combination of love for the legal field and career counseling. Then, launched into the greatest and most demanding "job"--motherhood! Ups and downs, highs and lows that come with the territory of marriage and motherhood. Would I do it again--YES!
