Connie's Story

After graduation, I was off to Olympic College in Bremerton, WA and attended one year there; then to Columbus, Ohio, where I attended Ohio State. I did not graduate from Ohio State, but completed three more years, during which time I was very active in the dance department at Ohio State which was nationally renown and attracted dancers such as Twyla Tharp, Garth Fagan and Nicolai, which gave me a chance to dance with these troops and take their classes. I also started my legal career in Ohio at Bricker & Eckler, was married to Rusty Jones, who went to Viet Nam, and we unfortunately did not last long. After that, off to Chicago because of a boyfriend, and got my degree from Northwestern Ill. while continuing to work in law and became a paralegal. Then 3 years later off to Seattle, WA and continued with my education in the MBA program and also working as a paralegal, one job was at McCaw Communications working for Craig McCaw, who was the cellular world's largest icon eventually. Then after about 4 years I was married again and we left WA State and relocated to Southern CA. This is where I had my daughter Nikki and lived until 1995, still working as a paralegal, traveled a lot and raised my darling daughter. We then moved to Northern CA because of my husband's job opportunity and settled where I live today; however my husband of 17 years decided he liked his secretary more, so left Nikki and I, and actually that was probably a good thing...Expand for more
; so here I am with a new husband of 5 years who is a wondeful man, I finally learned what is important in a partner. I left law in 1995 and went into business, was in sales, was Area Manager for Countrywide Financial for awhile, and then finally went back into law working at Chevron as a Legal Analyst working on their commercial sales and leasing transactions in California. They then promoted me to Transaction Manager for District 2, and I handle all their sales and leasing and work with the retailers and buyers, very interesting work. My husband builds power plants and waste water treatment plants, my daughter is 22 and still in school and Assistant Mgr in retail, and we are living a very happy life, mostly because of our faith in God, Jesus and ourselves. Took a few years, but got here! Feel like I've lived the lives of three people, but that is a good thing and I have taken only the best out of everything, including my faith and my family. I am active in New Life Church, love to swim laps, lift weights and take yoga to stay in shape, love my friends and cooking and dining out and going up to Lake Tahoe to hike and ski, and trips to wine country and San Francisco, and all the areas we are so fortunate to have close in Northern CA. Very close to my mother and my sister and travel to see them often in WA State and Ohio. Lots more to tell, but this is far too long (I also love to write and am working on a book). God Bless everyone!
