Shelley's Story

After graduating from Oakton I spent four great years at William & Mary. I met my husband there, we both got local jobs and have lived in Williamsburg ever since. I work at the National Center for State Courts, a non-profit organization focused on improving the administration of justice in state courts. I've learned a great deal about the courts in the 29 years I've worked here that I thankfully never had the opportunity to learn from the 'user side'! I am an Association Manager, working with five different judicial and court organizations. We provide a wide variety of services to them, including conference planning and management.

We don't have any children but have shared our lives with a number of wonderful dogs, currently Schuyler and Leo. They keep us busy and often entertained. I found out in 1977 that I was born with only one kidney and it didn't function well. With a careful diet and a good doctor I was able to get by without dialysis, but finally in July 2000 had a kidney transplant, with a kidney donated from an amazing, wonderful friend. I'm not sure I'll make it to the reunion but hope to be there. My parents still live in Mosby Woods so I get up that way fairly often, but I don't think I've seen anyone from Oakton for at least 30 years!
