Laura's Story
Life
I have been married to Russell Thackston for over 20 wonderful years. We have one great daughter, Amanda, who is a 4th year at Georgia Tech.
After high school, Russell joined the Air Force. We were stationed at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado for 4 years. In 1992, we moved back to Statesboro to attend Georgia Southern University. We both graduated with BBAs in Info Systems.
After college graduation, we moved to Columbus, Georgia, for work. We stayed there for 2 years. In 1998, we moved up to Atlanta.
I have worked for the same company for the last 10 years mostly as a business analyst (systems analysis and design); however...Expand for more
, I did try out mainframe programming for 3 years during that time.
In March of this year, my father had to have triple bypass heart surgery, so I have taken a hiatus from work to help my parents out. I plan to return to work when they no longer need me as much.
We live in Marietta, GA in a neighborhood not too far away from anything. We are members of a local Methodist church and attend their contemporary service. We volunteer and participate in many of their activities and have made great friends there.
Changes may be on the horizon, Russell has been offered a job that may result in a temporary move, but that is still up in the air. Such is life . . .
