After graduating high school,I was sent to Los Angeles at the end of August to start design school. It was very different than La Jolla..I graduated with a B.S. in Design in three years. Started working shortly after graduation ,which was usually fun and challenging.
Worked for Catalina Swimwear , Lanz, and several other,till I found a company I was with for 15 years. At some point, I was burned out,so I became a Design Instructor at FIDM for another 15 years. I never thought I would be a teacher,but I loved it,working with young adults with imagination
was rewarding. I married in 1967 to Bob, no children, just Labradors. I lived in Woodland Hills,for the life of the marriage (29 years) and then some. I needed to get out of the L.A. lifestyle,so I retired and moved to La Quinta, CA. I am starting my 5th year and love it. I live in the community
of Trilogy ( over 55 ). I still play golf. swim in the summer, involved with organizations such as the Creative Arts Club at Trilogy and the Activities committee.
As a design Instructor I had the opportunity to learn CAFD, and was hooked on computers. I taught the CAFD classes which included Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator and wrote several boos to assist students in all Design Schools. I live with my 3 year old white Labrador named Maizey Grace.
Four years ago I found my best friend Valerie Forward on Facebook and we connected and we are having great time laughing and reliving those great years of LJHS.
