Dana's Story
Life
My most important people in my life are my parents, my friends, and my family. Most of my friends are from the job.
I still like to visit my family in Paw Paw. Sometimes when I drive through town, I really feel at home. I miss having horses. Maybe someday I'll be able to have a couple again.
I hope to connect with genuine friends.
School
I went to school in Paw Paw for most of my life, but I don't keep in touch with people from high school at all. Most of my friends are from college or work. My senior year in high school, I transferred out to Youngstown and went to a much larger school than Paw Paw. That was a good experience, I think.
My favorite teacher of all time was Mrs. Frank, in the third grade. She was one of the most supportive teachers I have ever had. Ever.
College
I have a Bachelor's degree in Journalism, double emphasis in Broadca...Expand for more
st News and Public Relations, with a minor in English. I enjoyed going to school at NIU and had some wonderful professors and instructors. I feel very blessed to have gone to college when I was at an age where I would appreciate my learning. I believe that most 18 year-olds have no business deciding what they want to do for the rest of their lives until they have lived a little.
I never lived in a residence hall or dorm, but instead, worked through most of my college life living in a sorority house as a "house mother"... THAT was an interesting experience! I still remain close friends with a few of "my" sorority girls. Those who know me well know that I'm not the "sorority" type, but I did really enjoy the women I worked for. I had a great opportunity to relive my youth a little during that time.
I currently work for the city of Sycamore.
Take care!
