Catherine's Story
Life
I'm married to Darren (June 11, 2001) and living in northeast NJ with our eight (yes, eight) cats. Since graduating from HGHS, I've led a rather eclectic lifestyle. I received my BA and MA in history. That was followed by working in the music industry for four years. I then got very sick with severe depression that threw my life upside down a few times and kept me out of the workforce for a number of years.
Once I started to get back on my feet, I went and followed one of my original passions: animation. I earned a Certificate in Computer Animation with a specialty in 3D animation.

Following the words of the immortal Socrates, who said that "the unexamined life is not worth living," I reexamined my life and tried to "figure out what I wanted to be when I grew up." At 36, it was a hard decision to make, to start life over anew, but I had faith and a supportive husband to help me make that first step. I started with a position as an Adult Services Librarian at one of the local libraries, and then I got not one but two gigs at local community colleges to teach history. I was working three jobs at one point. Talk about crazy!
Now I'm a History Lecturer at one of those community colleges and I'm looking into furthering my graduate education with a PhD. Yes, I'm definitely crazy.
