I was born in Germany, moved to the United States when I was 11 years old. Learned English and graduated High School in Colorado Springs. After meeting my Husband in Colorado, I received my citizenship and made the United States my permanent home. We moved to San Diego in 1990 which has been my home ever since. We have three awesome adult children, Petrina, Kimberly and Bryon, who have given us 4 beautiful grandchildren. When not at work, I enjoy being with friends and family, cooking, gardening and love playing in the desert with our sand rails.
