I am looking forward to meeting everyone at the Merit Badge University! A little bit about me:
I am a wife, mom, daughter, co-worker and friend. I have a wonderful husband (he is teaching Personal Finance), an amazing daughter, and an awesome son. Our family also includes two dogs; a Miniature Pinscher named Rox and a Plott Hound named Rooger. My many interest and hobbies include quilting, arts and crafts, blogging, and hanging out with my family. Most days you can find out family at one of the many activities we are involved in including baseball, gymnastics, choir, karate, quilting and various clubs.
I m a Certified Cost Engineer with over eleven years of experience in all aspects of coast estimating and project management. As Technical Services Manager for iParametrics, I work on a broad range and diverse range of projects for the Military (Army Corp of Engineers and Naval Facilities), the Department of Defense, educational institutions, and many others. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2002. |
