A strong background in the beliefs of life's basic values. Being raised in a "Christian" home and having a devout trust in God has made me what I am today.

Birth Place: Marion, VA USA

Accomplishments: Combined a thirty-five year career with the rearing of five children. My career began on a much needed basis to provide  an extra income for my growing family. As time passed, I found that I enjoyed the work I was doing and the family had become accustomed to the things that an extra income could provide. My employment began as a Sewing machine operator with a well known Apparel Manufacturing Company in 1963. Through the years, I was given the opportunity to work my way up in the company. In 1975, I was among the first women  to hold the position of Industrial Engineer with the company. I remained in that position for ten years, where I had the opportunity to travel and meet different people. This was the most rewarding accomplishment of my career. I was transfered from Virginia to Arkansas in 1984 and changed positions in 1985 to a Production Line  Manager. I remained in that position until my retirement in 1997. I owe my success to my family for their full support and to the company that made it all possible.

"George & Elizabeth" is my first novel and I am currently working on another book which will be a sequel based on the life of my mother, to whom I owe any success as an author.
