INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE
Life is like a puzzle. You get a whole lot of pieces, and you have to look at them to see which piece fits where. They may not fit right away. Sometimes you have to put that piece to the side. Look at it a little later in the day, or even later in life, and it may fit just where it needs to go.
CAREER & LIFE CHALLENGES
The biggest challenge I have is that I am a 5 ft. 2inch female who weighs 100 lbs. Most people look at me and wonder how someone my size could possibly help them. My advice to others in a similar situation is to never give up, and to keep helping others.
FIRST SPECIAL VEHICLE
My first special car was my brother’s 1965 Mustang, and the fact that my brother couldn’t believe that I fixed it after he had a little fender bender.
BEST AUTOMOTIVE ADVICE
Any car that you have, and no matter what you’re doing with it, just have fun with it!
