Then started my journey west to start college, at the University of Montana, in Missoula. Earned a Bachelors of Science in Nursing, from Montana State University, in Bozeman. Skied a few days each season and lived in Big Sky for 5 seasons. Along the way I studied ceramics in Missoula as well. That is where I realized my interest in the arts. Over the years since I have occasionally joined a studio to throw pots. More recently I have been in a Ceramics Career Tech Education class at Coronado Adult Education. Current member of the Mud club at HTHMA. Joined HTH from Mater Dei Catholic High School. Where I worked as a IT Systems Administrator for 8 years. I love being a part of the education system. When away from school I enjoy anything outdoors and active. I love the mountains and the ocean.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hailed from the Keystone State, Pennsylvania, where I grew until my early twenties.
