Karen's Story
Life
I have a son who lives in Woodridge and is a hydro-Geologist, with a Masters degree. My middle daughter lives in Alabama and is an OR Nurse. She was in the army for 8 years, 3 of which were spent in Japan. I got to visit her for 3 weeks in Japan - exciting trip. My youngest girl is married and has a daughter, they also live in Woodridge. I have been divorced for 23 years. I have remained local, living in un-incorporated Schaumburg for the past 27 years. I have a sweet dog as my house companion. I love traveling, just got back from 12 days in Italy, with 3 lady friends. On by the way, I still roller-skate; my travel companions are also skaters. ...Expand for more
My summer love is my deck and pool. I plan on retiring in Alabama - want to be close to the Nurse as I get older. First priority will be an in-ground pool.
Workplace
I have been in Data Processing all my life. Out of High School I went directly into IBM Key Punching, for various companies. At age 36 I went back to school to get a degree in Computer Science. I worked several years as a computer operator. For the last 20 years I have been a computer programer/analyst. I have worked at Northwest Community Hospital for the last 26 years, in the IT department. I currently support the PeopleSoft payroll/benefits/HR system, doing new development & support.
