Christa’s Master’s Project  "Tim's Gift" 

The walls of Christa's room were decorated by her Mom with all of Chirsta's various awards and pictures taken of significant college events.

Christa’s Spain Pictures: Low Res.  (689kb) High Res (1.86MB) taken during a combined business and pleasure trip in the summer of 2002.

After completing her Master's degree in December 2004, Christa went to work fulltime for IBM, completing her internship and officially joining the work force.  Her department was subsequentlly downsized and she was offered several different positions at IBM requiring her to transfer to various parts of the country.  My daughter finally found out that IBM does not stand for Itty Bitty Machines but rather it stands for I've Been Moved.  Rather then take a transfer, she researched and applied for jobs locally and ended up going to Apple Computer in April of 2006.  Also in 2006, she decided to dump the corporate world all together, ending up in Hawaii working for a private college doing recruitment.  This job entails pitching "Going to College" to High School Juniors and Seniors.  She also teaches "ESL (English as a Second Language)" at the University of Hawaii.
