The Penn State Alumni AssociationWhat’s been happening: After working as a speech pathologist for 15 years I shifted careers and became a Designated Linklater Voice Teacher and owner of my own business (Puck's Pals. LLC) teaching Shakespeare workshops to middle school children. I coached a competitive speech team (Forensics Team) for 8 years and became a Certified Forensics Coach. I presently teach Theatre Voice & Speech at George Mason University, and Presentation Skills workshops to professional organizations through my new company, Professionally Speaking. For fun, I've done a lot of acting in plays and some film work. Over the years I have managed to raise 3 children - one an Honors College student at PSU (living in my old dorm!), one now at Vanderbilt, and another on his way to Indiana Univ. Richard, my husband of 25 years, and I have managed to travel to a number of interesting countries and US destinations over the years. We make it back to PSU for a football game each fall and have a group of PSU alum friends to watch games with. I stay in-touch with some old friends and Theta sisters and we visit from time to time. Favorite memories of PSU - football games, Theta, disco dancing, Acacia, Phi Psi 500, grilled stickies, Gentle Thursday, glazed donuts, Thon, Graduation in Beaver Stadium, and being on a 60 Minutes segment about JoePa, then waiting on him at The Deli Restaurant. |
