Get To Know Deann

I worked in the Copy & Print Center at Office Depot. All my high school reports/projects always looked super professional!

Friends and Big Bang Theory when I want zero brain power required, Downton Abbey when I’m feeling cultured, and Dateline because nothing says ‘me time’ like Keith Morrison narrating someone’s terrible decisions.

A Very Small Farm by William Paul Winchester. It’s all about the simple and quiet pleasures of life. And I love collecting cookbooks, especially vintage ones!

Dial-up internet that took FOREVER to connect and made sounds like a robot dying. And then having to get off the computer because Mom or Dad needed to use the phone!

Restaurant management taught me crisis control, web design taught me client patience, and my MBA taught me there’s usually a spreadsheet solution. I’m basically a Swiss Army knife of ‘figure it out.

Porter, a chocolate lab who thinks he’s a lap dog, and Marvin, a cat who talks more than most people do.

I would be a lifelong student (if that was a real, paying job!)
