Jeanette's Story
Life
I haven't strayed too far from Hicksville. I bought a co-op in Great Neck two years ago and enjoy the town, but it's a little too quiet for me sometimes.

ob as public affairs director for New York Institute of Technology in Old Westbury. Before that I was with United Way of NYC, starting on Sept. 10, 2001, believe it or not, and quickly became involved in a challenging but rewarding experience raising money for the victims of that horrible day.
I was married once but no longer. No children but still hopeful the train hasn't left the station. That's all for now! :-)
Workplace
I've spent my career split between publishing and public relations. For the last 10, I've worked in agencies, then moved inhouse to United Way, and now NYIT. I don't miss the agency life AT ALL.
The job I have now has all the elements I've been waiting for: It's been a big step up and one I finally (after 6 months) have gotten comfortable with.
