I was born and raised in Oklahoma in a middle-income family with three siblings and am now the mother of three amazing grown children who, together, have three beautiful daughters of their own. My parents are both deceased, though I remember back in third grade asking my parents’ permission to build a dollhouse. I didn’t want a store-bought dollhouse…I wanted to design, create and make a dollhouse. From that day forward, I loved figuring things out: how to cut wood to create a masterpiece, how an engine worked and made things move, how the chemicals in a perm made hair curly (yes, I know I’m dating myself). These were all things I wanted answers too. Forty plus years later, my mind is still in a problem-solving mode with my love for building and creating strategies. Every day, I want to learn and create something that will make a difference in the world.
