About Me
I am now an accountant and professional artist.
After I left the Way in April of 1989, I immediately went home to care for my terminally ill mother, who died of cancer in 1991 and is awaiting the return of our Lord and Savior. After finishing classes in Accounting, I was hired by Schottensteins/Value City Department Stores, now Retail Ventures Inc., in Columbus, OH, in 1993. The company also includes DSW and Filene's Basement. I have been in the Finance Dept in several positions, and have discovered I have a knack with computers and systems, which came as a complete surprise to me!
After a bout with cancer, I decided to pursue my art instead, since I seemed to have been putting it off for ever. I now am an accountant by day and an artist by night (haha) and care for six cats. If I don't watch out, I will become one of those cat ladies...wait, I already am! My dream upon retirement or earlier is to have a home with several Christian artist like a Way home, work part time and paint full time.
