 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Q: What brought you to Jacksonville?<\/strong>
\n<\/span>A: I\u2019m originally from upstate New York, and I moved here 27 years ago. My kids were born here and we\u2019ve lived in Mandarin the whole time. My husband got a job down here; we\u2019re from a small town and there weren\u2019t a lot of opportunities there. We looked all over for the right place to live, and found a house right around the corner from his job. We just really lucked out.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Q: What got you started working at Crown Point?<\/strong>
\n<\/span>A: All of my kids went there, and I started by volunteering. At one point, I started being a crossing guard for the school. When one of the secretaries for the school was ready to retire, they suggested that I apply for the job, so I did. I got the job, and stopped being a crossing guard and started working in the office. This is my third year working inside in the front office. It\u2019s great. I love it.<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Q: What is your favorite thing about your job?<\/strong>
\n<\/span>A: We\u2019re like a big family. We all get along. The principal is great, we all really like each other, and it makes the job easy to be happy and friendly to people. I like the kids and the people I work with. <\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Q: What do you like to do for fun?<\/strong>
\n<\/span>A: I\u2019m kind of a crafty person. I like to do sewing projects and craft projects. When I get down time, I also enjoy yoga. My boys play lacrosse, so that takes up a lot of time, but I love watching them play. My oldest is in college and playing for Embry-Riddle, so when he has home games, we go. My youngest is actually on a couple of travel teams. We really enjoy it. And I am pretty passionate about lacrosse myself, too. I don\u2019t know what I\u2019m going to do when my boys aren\u2019t playing anymore. I help with the boosters at the high school lacrosse team, and I don\u2019t even have kids playing for the team right now. <\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Q: What is your favorite thing about living in Mandarin?<\/strong>
\n<\/span>A: I find it hard to pick a favorite. I really enjoy the area; there\u2019s a ton of stuff to do. I have a comfort zone of about a five-mile radius; if I have to go outside of that, I usually won\u2019t do it. We\u2019re close enough to the beach, but we don\u2019t have to deal with the traffic. I\u2019ve never lived anywhere else in Jacksonville, so I can\u2019t really compare it, but I have been happy here. It has everything that I need.<\/span><\/p>\n
