FAMILY

My husband and I have been married for over 25 years and we have three wonderful boys. We live in Tacoma, Washington. We love spending time together as a family either working on projects around the house, playing disc golf, or playing soccer together!

THREE RANDOM QUESTIONS

What got you into the work you are doing now?

Since I was little, I have always enjoyed numbers. My dad owned a gas station when I was growing up and my mom did the books for him. My mom taught me how to do the books when I was 12 years old and I also learned how to do deposits and run the register. Because of my love for numbers at a young age, I knew I wanted a job in accounting. When a position became available at Air Spares with a friend working here, I was given the opportunity to join in and I have worked here ever since! It will be 24 years in July!

Where is one place you have always wanted to travel to?

Greece! I have always wanted to learn about the history of all the old buildings and ruins. I find the Biblical history so fascinating.  

What is your favorite thing to do outside of work?

I really enjoy crocheting. I have been crocheting since I was about 8 or 9 years old and I was taught by my mom.
