Georgia's Story
What I remember most from my years at Andrew Jackson:
Entering the tenth grade in a brand new school!
The Prep Quiz Bowl in the fall of 1968 as the AJ Captain (we lost - but it was fun).
Doing my Physics homework in Fortran on the huge computer.
The great college prep education I got at a public school in St. Bernard Parish.
College at LSU - New Orleans which became the University of New Orleans:
Started out as a Physics major, then Music, then Drama, graduated in Drama & Communications with a minor in Journalism (BA)
Other education, etc.
Master's in Healthcare Management (University of New Orleans)
Certified in Healthcare Compliance (CHC)
Certified Professional Coder - Hospital (CPC-H)
Registered Medical Coder (RMC)
Other interesting things I've worked at over the years:
singer, graphic designer, teacher (Delgado), grant writer
Other general info about me:
3 children - one daughter lives in the New Orleans region, one daughter lives in NYC (she is currently in "South Pacific" on Broadway, one son lives in Oregon,...Expand for more
one grandson who (gratefully) lives in the New Orleans region
After Betsy and Katrina and Rita and Gustav and Ike and all the Hurricanes in between, I've decided I will never evacuate again. Life is too short to spend days at a time on the open road with a million other cars (and your dogs and birds in the car with you).
I live in the New Orleans area and will live here my whole life (unless of course I happen to become very wealthy then I can buy a Villa around Venice, a condo in Manhattan's Upper Westside and keep my little house here in Louisiana). Louisiana is GREEN and WARM compared to other states. But I must admit that NYC is tempting. It energizes me to visit and I do it as often as I can afford to.
The things I love the best:
My children and grandson, of course
A dynamic day at work and a relaxing evening at home with my Silky Terriers and my birds
A glass of Pinot Noir and a good book
A weekend at Grand Isle on the beach with girlfriends
A Yankees game
ALL the museums in New York
Watching my garden grow
