Laura's Story

Life Nothing says "I'm recently divorced" like a set of braces and a 60+ lb weight loss! Had a great marriage (~25 years) but since we'd been living 3 hours apart for a few years, we decided to just move on... All's friendly, and the kids are comfortable, so that's as good as it gets! Two wonderful children - Katie and Nick. Kate's a junior at OSU, majoring in Arabic/Middle Eastern Studies. Nick just graduated high school, and will start at OSU in the fall. Two great kids, and i couldn't be more proud! Lots of fun, too! Hobbies? Lots! I'm still involved in local community theater, both on and off stage. Although it's been a few years, i will still drag a guitar on stage and do a local "open mike" night occasionally as well. Travel is also a big blast for me! Just got back from a long weekend in Iceland, and did a two week trip to Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia last fall to meet Katie during her "Semester at Sea". ...Expand for more
Finished my SCUBA certification last fall, and am considering flight training... Life's short, and there's a whole lot of stuff i still need to do! College Undergraduate (BS) in Materials Science and Engineering from Wright State University (Dayton, OH) in 1985, and a Masters in Materials Science from the University of Dayton in 1990. What's next? Bartending license... Workplace Started the co-op program with the Air Force Research Labs in 1981, and i've been there ever since... I guess if you stick around long enough, eventually you'll be in charge -- so now i'm the Tech Advisor to the Electronic and Optical Materials Branch <in other words - i'm a geek>. Did a year-long internship at the Pentagon in the late 90's which cured me of all professional ambition, and i've been back to being "Queen Geek" ever since. What's next? I could probably retire in a few years, but will need to keep working to feed the hobbies...
