I have been working in the medical field for about 15 years now. I started as receptionist and then went to an accounts payable coordinator then payroll assistant, scheduling, trainer and now I am in insurance/billing; which is what I have a niche for. I do like talking and I get to talk on the phone as much as I want with patients and insurance and everyone else too. I really do like my job and have a good group of doc's and crna's too.

I do recall always having fun in Marketing Class with our classmates; esp. our little group--Naomi, Jeff, Billy, Donnie, Jerry and others.

I know I didn't care for Biology in Mr Harters class when we had to dissect a frog; that was really gross.

I know some people may have been more fortunate than I but I still had a good time in school. I know LIFE happened to all of us and we all grew up. I do miss those days but glad I'm not in school now; the way violence and everything is now, you just don't know what happens in the schools nowadays.

I don't see many of my classmates unless I run into them in town or Wal-mart. I did work with Dana (Dement) Jones at WHS for few years before I started working at M'boro Anesthesia Group. As far as hanging out with friends? What is that???? It seems like I don't have as much time to do anything like we used to; is that normal or what???

Yes

Well, I've done practically everything imaginable that I've ever wanted to do. I really don't have anything in particular but I'm always up for a road trip or a flight somewhere for an adventure.

#1 is God and Family #2 is traveling and my photography #3 Enjoying life and everyday possible #4 So many things have come and gone and we have done and experienced but I consider everyday a blessing.

I really don't have a dark side but not sure about what would be a surprise about me; I haven't changed too much. I try alot of things once to see if I like or dislike, otherwise, how will you know?

I wished I took spanish for sure. I would be more involved in activities, clubs and maybe even try some kind of sport??? But if I knew the things I know now back then...I'd changed alot of things.

My favorite teacher was Mr Eakes; he would always pick on a few of us and we always would act up too. I really enjoyed the dances that we all attended after the games too. I had a few crushes but will keep that to heart.
