I spent over 18 years working for Cardinal Health (formerly Baxter/Allegiance) until December \'09 when my position was eliminated. My position at Cardinal was what transferred me from the Gurnee/Waukegan area out here to the Columbus, OH area almost 12 years ago.

I left Safelite in June \'13 and then became a contractor at Honeywell Aerospace until early August \'15. I\'ve been working at Hikma Pharamaceuticals as a Buyer/Planner since Nov \'15. However, my greatest joy over the last couple of years was becoming a Grandma. My grandson, Colton, is now 6 and my granddaughter, Rylee is 4. I got married to my wonderful husband, Steve Ricci on 3/31/17. We are enjoying and tackling life\'s journey together with God\'s guidance. I look forward to see where God will take us. I love the longer warmer seasons and the shorter, less harsh winters here in Columbus, OH compared to back in Waukegan.

Occupation: Union Electrician
Comment:
If you have grandchildren, how old are they?: None....maybe at the 50th
What have you been up to since high school?: I did the factory thing for about 4 years....not for me, nor was college. I was indoctrinated into IBEW Local 150 in my early 20s.... it was the 2nd best choice I made as a young adult. The trade has treated me good, as well as my previous wife. Got out of the party scene in my early 20s as well, this by far was the best choice.





I have been in several business ventures, sold everything in 2002 and moved to LA....this was the worst choice I made...not for me!! There is nothing like Midwest people. Not long after my return to IL. I licensed down in Chicago and built condos during that whole craze...seen things swinging south in the market and folded another business. I have enjoyed being fortunate enough to travel, have nice homes the toys and all that other crap, but having had all that and now living pretty simple I live a much more stress free life, I have been very involved in raising my son, who is 9 and making sure my footings are always sound. Yes I did start late, I have another son due in October...very excited about it. Babies room is almost done..then what the list will never end....enough said
What are your current hobbies and interests?: Went to see Mr. "C" last year down in TN. He was my woodshop teacher for 2 years. I have since revitalized my woodshop, and have turned out a few very fine pieces of furniture. Oh traveling is on the list, ya I like to cook. Being involved with my boys acedemics, sports etc. but most of all just being there for him!
