Paula's Story
Hi Guys! Glad to see some of my friends from Helix on the site. Guess we are getting ready for next year's reunion - don't know who is planning it, but hopefully we'll all get a chance to get together. Previous ones have involved Liz Laird, Kathy De Hope, Nancy Zitren, Paula Novell, etc., but not sure if anyone has launched the planning for 2011.
I still live in the area, have recently retired from my full-time professional career as an executive, and am now pursuing my encore career with Apple, Inc. After grad school at SDSU...Expand for more
, I worked in HR for about 10 years and then grew to be an executive with many different areas of responsibility. Turned out my favorite was designing/building corporate facilities globally. Got a chance to build pharmaceutical/biotech plants/labs with Jonas Salk. Went on to work in Europe, China, Thailand, India, South Africa and Botswana as well as on the East Coast of the US. It was quite a thrill, but am now enjoying life a bit closer to home.
Hope you are all doing well. See you next year (hopefully) at our 40th!
Paula
