While in the military, Elizabeth lived in Germany and Italy for over five years, total. She was able to travel extensively throughout Europe, including making several trips to her favorite town: Paris.
Her military experience led to work as an OSHA administrator in fuels operations, munitions, resource management, and supplies. Hospital work included hospital statistician, student library assistant, and pharmacy assistant.
She also coordinated and managed complex computer installations and conversions.

Elizabeth is an award winning artist and muralist.
With a very rare medical condition, G-6PD, if it could be sung, painted, played on a violin, composed, written, acted, learned, read, done well, attempted, or danced, it was her imperative to do as much as possible when young. As a result, a lot has been learned and done.
The most important lesson to Elizabeth is that learning never stops, and that humility in the face of unlearned knowledge is essential.
Elizabeth volunteers as a Helium channel manager for "Internet Trends" and "Internet Issues". Hopefully, new and old writers will find some time to visit and write some articles in those channels!
