| 2002:
I babysat for about 3 years after I got out of high school. I took a class
in computers and accounting at the JVS for a year (which I received a certificate
in). I moved to Cincinnatti for a little while. Moved back to Oberlin and
worked odd and end jobs for awhile. Some of these jobs included janitorial
for a church, counter help at Pettifords Bakery before it closed, working
at a girl's camp in Maine for a few summers before I decided to go to college.
I attended Carlow College in Pittsburgh from fall '88. I graduated with
a B.A. in Psychology in May '93. During my education at Carlow I was class
treasurer for 3 years, treasurer for a group called OASIS (Older Adult Students
In School) and vp of SGA for a year. After I graduated from college I began
working as a residential assistant in an assisted living agency for the
severely and persistantly mentally ill. I later became a counselor lll for
a different agency. I then worked for Western Psychiatric Institute and
Clinic in Pittsburgh as an intensive case manager. I returned to Oberlin
due to being ill. I am on the mend and have recently begun working with
the Lorain County Rape Crisis Center. I have traveled a little, however,
nothing abroad. I was in the 1994 earthquake that hit Northridge, Ca and
was less than 15 miles from the epicenter, what an experience I will never
forget. Last summer I traveled to Florida and was able to appreciate the
grace and beauty of watching dolphins and manatees swimming from the ocean
into the river. Other than that...nothing too exciting to report. :) i do
look forward to seeing everybody this coming summer. |
