The Penn State Alumni Association

What’s been happening:

Shortly after leaving Penn State, I relocated to Glendale, AZ. While in Arizona, from 1995 to 2002, I met Joe, got married, earned a grad degree from Thunderbird and welcomed Katie. We relocated to Katy, TX in 2002. Katie is getting ready to begin middle school and is an accomplished gymnast. She's looking forward to playing the flute in 6th grade, as well. Joe and I enjoy the practical aspects of Houston... good job market, low cost of living, close proximity to family, and many, many things to do. For example, Katie and I had an opportunity to meet a former U.S. President this year, George H W Bush. It was exciting on many levels, but it was an extra treat for me since I was unable to secure a priority ticket when he spoke at PSU back in the early '90s. Outside of Houston, we make occasional trips to Disney World when we can. I have been a fan since childhood and worked at Disney one summer while a student at PSU. Every other year or so, Katie competes in Orlando. Other potential items of interest: We are all animal lovers and have several cats, and I still exchange Christmas cards with Professor Prybyla. I enjoyed his instruction very much and am honored that he takes the time to write each year. I look back on PSU fondly and have stocked a few PSU t-shirts in Katie's dresser. Who knows; maybe PSU gymnastics is in her future!?! Hope all is well!
