Betty's Story

Life I married a wonderful man, Frank Villani, and have a beautiful daughter, Allisa Nicole who is now 25 years old, a graduate of George Mason University in Fairfax, VA, an Admissions Counselor at the University of California and has just completed her Masters at the University of Redlands. Our son, John (Frank's child by a previous marriage), an engineer, lives in Chicago with his wife, Nancy. They have presented us with a lovely granddaughter, Sarah who is now 6 years old and an adorable grandson, Christopher John, now 5. Frank, Allisa and I live in Southern California in a community half way between Los Angeles and Palm Springs called Alta Loma. Frank is a contractor and owns his own business which has been highly successful. He teaches English at the Community College one night per week for fun (he misses teaching which was his full time career many years ago). I worked for Sears for 12 years, then left and began a career with AT&T. After a successful 9 years, I opened their Sales and Marketing Division near our home. Sometime later I decided to go back to school and study law. I attended law school 4 nights per week while working full time for AT&T as a District Marketing Manager. I received my JD degreee in May of 1995 and passed the California bar exam in July of 1995. Continued with AT&T for several more years until they offered a "golden handshake" in 1998. I became in-house counsel for a video conferencing company and continued for sev...Expand for more
eral years there. In 2002 I decided to become self-employed and became a business broker. I absolutely love the profession as I can now combine people skills of sales/marketing days with negotiating and contract skills of my legal background. My company is Business Venture Group, Inc. and I am in the process of adding several new associates. Frank and I love to travel (especially cruises and abroad...Europe and South America) and try to go somewhere special at least 2-3 times per year. We own vacation homes in Maui, HI, Cancun, Mexico and Myrtle Beach, SC. We also have a condo in Mammoth Lakes, CA in the Sierras and try to get away to be there in every season (although we do not ski as often as we once did). We also enjoy the beach communities of Southern CA and enjoy Palm Springs and Las Vegas from time to time. We have recently returned from the trip of a life time...the Galapagos Islands just off the coast of Ecuador(spectacular!). Allisa has just completed graduate school at the University of Redlands in CA, earning an MS in Couseling. She and her boyfriend of 5 years, Chris, have recently moved in together and became engaged on Christmas eve. They are planning to marry June 26, 2010 so the wedding fun has begun. Our family leads a happy, active life and we are very close to one another. We love California and could never consider living anywhere else. After all...where else can you go to the beach, mountains and desert all in the same day?
