Michelle's Story
Life
I am a HUGE entertainer!! I love to cook, share wine with friends, laugh and make others laugh! I can't live without my iPhone, iPad or MacBook Pro, and am a technology junkie!! I am a huge research geek, so if there's something I need to investigate or want to learn about...I get down and dirty. I speak 2 languages fluently, and dabble in Russian, Japanese, French and Italian.
I travel extensively and did so while I was wheelchair bound for three solid years. It has opened my eyes to more important things in life. I volunteered for our local Hinds Hospice, and stood vigil for those going through their final transition. It was an overwhelming blessing. I hope that you all are finding your calling in life. If not...hang in there. It will reveal itself to you.
We have three BEAUTIFUL girls: Briana, Alyssa and Dayna. Bri has a degree in Art History, runs her own success business and is married; Lys has a degree in Business/Accounting, is married and made me a grandma to two beautiful little girls: Dayna is married and is majoring in Economics, and will be earning a Masters in Mathematics.
Please, feel free to contact me! I would love to hear from old classmates.
Workplace
After doing something that I had always wanted to do, Produce for television, I decided that it was best for me to be at home with my daughters. So, after brainstorming a little, I decided to sell ladies brand-s...Expand for more
panking-new, couture (runway/Red Carpet) designer evening gowns on the internet. I met so many fabulous women (and men) from around the world! I was on CBS' Early Show, spoke at the NYC Fashion Institute (where Project Runway is filmed) to an audience of 85 fashion designers, interviewed by London Times, Ellen DeGeneres Show, Parenting Magazine, Business Weekly, The Big Idea on MSNBC, Fresno Bee and many other magazines and papers. I also taught at Clovis Adult School ("Selling on eBay"). I really enjoyed teaching, and there was always a waiting list to get into my class...which was wonderful! I then went on to being a Travel Assistant for Mark Lewis Travel...specializing in assisting cruise groups of 100-250. Currently, I am happily employed by Apple as a Trainer. I feel SO blessed to have my job! It's not work if you enjoy doing what you love!
In the fall of 2010, I went to a trade academy and graduated with a Master Certification from Apple in their Final Cut Pro Suite, which is used for editing of major motion pictures, music videos and television. I am certified in Color, FCP 7, Soundtrack Pro, and DVD Studio Pro. I also took classes in Motion (2D and 3D animation).
I am hoping to dabble in the media business again, in some fashion. Not sure where I will be directed, but with my past connections, and new connections that I am making, I am sure it will be something that I will love!!
