Elaine's Story
Life
After graduation in 1986, I attended UWM for a few semesters then worked full time in an effort to figure out what I wanted to be when I grew up. That turned out to be a career as an RN. I've worked at Family Health Plan and Planned Parenthood (an organization I still support), and since 1999 I've been an RN in the Poison Control Center at Children's. I will retire from there! I LOVE it! I'm married to John Kostecki (Cudahy HS'84)and have 2 cats, one with Diabetes-- he gets 2 insulin injections per day. We're practicing with cats for now, hoping to start a family in 2004. I am also a part time real estate investor with holdings in mostly older homes. John & I are addicted to buying older homes and fixing them up! I was VERY SAD to se...Expand for more
e SMA close, I was really hoping to send my daughter/s (if I had any) there. I loved it. If I could go back and do high school all over again, I would in a heart beat. I tell that to people all the time and they just don't understand. SMA was a special place to me.
Workplace
I've had 3 positions in Nursing since graduation and I have loved them all, but I am most content with my position here at the Poison Center. Located in Children's, we manage calls about adults and children involved in both accidental and intentional exposures for the entire state. My title is RN CSPI (certified specialist of poison information). I am currently involved in several research projects and hope to have 2 articles published in professional journals this year.
