Tell us what's happened to you since high school
(Feel free to tell us THE WHOLE STORY):

As of July 2001, I moved to Bullhead City, AZ.  Bullhead is located along the beautiful banks of the Colorado River right across from Laughlin, NV.  Last August, I was fortunate to have sold my condo in Northern California.  I purchased a relatively new home in a lovely, gated community.  Everyday, I am blessed to view glorious sunrises and sunsets over the rugged, colorful mountain terrain that surrounds Bullhead City.

I am employed at the local electric company as the Manager of Human Resources and Employee Relations.  I have joined a few community causes and love to participate at local events.  I am looking forward to the warmer weather so I can enjoy hanging out by the river once again.  Hopefully, this year I will be able to do a little fishing and water skiing.

I am still an avid hot rod fan and attend many of the NHRA (National Hot Rod Association) events in Pomona, Phoenix, and Las Vegas.  I am planning to enter my refurbished 1970 Mustang in a few local car shows.  I bought my Mustang in 1974.  I have had this car longer than any other possessions in my life.  My philosophy is if you take care of what you have, it will last a long time…and it shows!

Since the 20th reunion, I bought a condo in Northern California in 1993.  I worked as a Benefits Manager for a few companies around the San Francisco area.  In 1995, I moved to Nashville, TN.  I was into country western music and wanted a change of pace from the hub-bub of California.  Well, you can take the girl from California, but you cannot take California out of this girl!  After about 3 years, I moved back to California early 1998.  I was fortunate to land a full-time Human Resources Manager position at a Pharmaceutical company in South San Francisco.  On a daily basis, I actually endured a four-hour commute a day.  As I started to become a couch potato on weekends because I was too tired to do much, I knew I had to change something in my life. Additionally, I knew I could not afford to retire in CA.  So, last year, I started looking for houses and employment in Bullhead.  I chose Bullhead City because my parents bought property here in 1965.  As a family, we spent many vacations and holidays here.  So, in fact, Bullhead City holds many fond memories of growing up and feels like it has always been my second home.

In conclusion, I still do not think I have come to a full circle in my life yet.  I am not ready to settle down either in my professional career or personal life yet.  I think I have a bit of gypsy in my spirit.  I am however, thankful for what I have and have no regrets on how I have lived my life so far.  I feel that I am blessed and am old enough now to really enjoy every aspect of my life!

I am really looking forward to visiting everyone at the 2002 class reunion!
