Hi everyone! I got married right after high school, and we will be celebrating our 20th Anniversary next year! Over the years, I have worked as a freelance artist & contributing author for several graphic design books. I have 3 beautiful children - one in college, one in high school, and one in junior high. They keep me very busy! I still look back and wonder where those 20 years went - it goes by so fast! I hope everyone is doing well. Have a great reunion! :-)
From Michelle:
I won't be making it to the reunion, but I wanted to say, 'Hi!' I hope everyone has a great time!

I have lived in Wisconsin for over 13 years now. I still work part time as a teacher but my husband and I after having our two older children got the surprise of our lives with our 3rd child, Mark, who is now 7 months old! Our older children are Meaghan, 13, and Matt, 11. I married a Valpo guy, Mark (Class of '87) and have been married for over 13 years. I don't come "home" so often anymore as my parents moved to my new "hometown" but am really excited to see old friends!

Wow! 20 years of interesting experiences! I've traveled pretty extensively (lived and studied in France/Europe, volunteered in Pera and Kenya, toured Israel, Costa Rica, and other amazing places. I'm cruising the Galapagos Islands this summer). I've earned a few degrees, written a couple of books, had a few great relationships, and have lived mostly in Chicago. I currently teach third grade and am enjoying the challenge. I can't wait to see what another 20 years brings!
From Lisa:
It's already been fun reconnecting with classmates! Be sure to contact everyone for whom you have information.

What have you been doing since 1988?:
I had 2 kids straight out of school (my oldest son Robbie will be 20 on our 20th anniversary graduation date! YIKES!) the younger Josh will be 18 this summer. So, I have one in college already at Ball State and one that will graduate next year (talk about feeling old!!!). I have been married and divorced. I have worked for a major health insurance company for the last 9 years and I have lived in Indianapolis for the last 10 years. Thanks to this website, I have had the good fortune of a second chance with my first love Hank Lorenz. I am waiting for him to get to Indy for now, but currently we are getting busy with the "rest" of our lives. Thank God for class reunions and the Internet!!!

Occupation:  Intelligence Analyst
Marital Status:  Married
What have you been doing since 1988?:
Let's see... went to IUN, switched to PUC, and while I was going to school I worked as a chauffeur for the Star Plaza Theatre (fun!). I graduated with a degree in teaching, worked in the Merrillville system for a while teaching ESL (even more fun!). I left that position, moved to Illinois, worked for ENA as an education coordinator. I then applied for a job as a linguist overseas-- on a whim, really-- and went to Germany (so much for studying all that French). A six month contract in Germany turned into 3 years, and the linguist position eventually turned into an intelligence analyst position. During that time, I was able to travel a lot through Europe until, in 2002, my job brought me to San Antonio, Texas. I met my husband, Sean, here. He was serving in the Royal Air Force (England) and happened to be deployed here to Lackland AFB. We got married, he quit the RAF (Brits can actually quit the military), and I continue to work at Lackland.
From Christina:
I can't believe it's been 20 years already!?!?
