Susie's Story
School
What I recall of high school was that I pretty much kept to myself and I was scared of boys. I wanted to be really good at something so I spent a lot of time in a dance studio. Socially the best memories I have of Southwest were being part of the school plays each Spring. They were so much fun. In high school, it's the electives you live for , right?
College
Lots of college, maybe too much! I enjoy learning. Attended TCU (duh) and went to a trade school in New YOrk City. Attended North Texas and got a Masters in ARt from TWU. I was trained in Multimedia at Richland College and presently teach classes there.What's fun about college is when ...Expand for more
you take classes just because you want to learn something and not when you have to get a degree in something. I'll be learning all my life.
Workplace
Scattered for the first 10 years after college. Tried all sorts of creative studio type work. Ended up teaching and having a baby. Struggling to keep my thumbs in the work pie. Then boom - divorce - no longer second income. I'm IT so got trained in computer graphics and multimedia and have worked in the field for the last 4 years. Doing well and enjoying my work. Can't say it was easy though. Balancing home , single parenthood and work. I've become a champion multi-tasker.
Really. It's a good thing.
