I am the third-born daughter of Ken & Barb Purdy (yep, they're real names) in Baton Rouge, LA. I have two sisters, Kim and Karen (yep, real names). Kim is a retired attorney in Dallas, and Karen is a family physician working in Shreveport.
Mom and Dad were both educators prior to retirement. I majored in political science and minored in chemistry and German, and then I thought about what I loved to do. It hit me that I loved tutoring people and helping them to learn.
So, I went back to school for certification in chemistry and biology, and then I landed the job at Caddo Magnet High at the tail-end of my student teaching. I retired from teaching in 2023, and I had a great 32.2 years at CMH. I am now the College Navigator for the Southwood High School Biotechnology Magnet Academy and once again loving working with kiddos.
I’ve been married to the love of my life since 1995, and we’ve been together since 1988. He supports me in everything that I do, and he loves life.
KNITTING & NEEDLEPOINTING
I usually make stuff for others, and I teach folks how to knit, too!
COOKING
I love trying new recipes.
WALKING
Running days are over, so I enjoy walking for exercise.
KITTIES
We have one wonderful kitty who gives us great joy...Elusive (b. 2020 striped girl). RIP, Misters Linden (black cat) and Mooch (striped boy) both of whom had 16 wonderful years with us.
Here is a collage of my loves...
