What I actually do: I do historical research for buildings and corporations. I also submit nominations to the National Register of Historic Places. No genealogies please.
Where I grew up: Texas
My most memorable business experience: I recorded a building in St. Charles, Mo., that was fire-damaged, and they wanted to tear it down. I was hired to do the evaluation of it and the background, and what I provided was so interesting that the owner decided to save and restore it.
Family: My boyfriend, George, and I have a dog named Roger.
Best advice I have ever gotten: Do what you enjoy doing and everything else will come.
A book everyone should read: "Walden" by Henry David Thoreau.
My inspiration: The sky here in Nevada.
