I graduated 12th in my Diboll High School in 1994 out of over 125 classmates. Was a Cheerleader for over 6 years starting in Junior High all the way through High School. Always made the Honor Roll, in Student Council as the secretary, Inducted into National Honor Society, and involved in all academic sports award ceremonies, and in the Future Homemakers of America Club and attended cook off competitions at the Lufkin Expo. I was voted "Friendliest" in Highschool my senior year because I believe in people and friends. I am very proud of what I have accomplished in the past and now the present.
I am currently a stay at home mother of 4 beautiful, loving, kindhearted, and very smart girls. My daughters that are in school have constantly made the all "A" Honor Roll and has become the "Highest Ranked Student" of their class. My oldest daughterSamantha Lowery is 13, and then Paige Lowery is 6, and the twins Karly and Kendall are 3! I love them very much and have a wonderful husband who will be able to help me with them now and in sickness if needed in the future. I have stayed home with them because it was a personal goal I wanted to accomplish and I have. My mother stayed at home with me, my sister, and brother and we still have awesome family ties! We get together once a month for a big family lunch and to let all of our kids play! We live in Etoile and I am willing to drive daily to Nacogdoches or Lufkin to enjoy a full time job. Please consider me for your next employee and I promise you will have no regrets but happiness in your heart for choosing a hard working, responsible, and trustworthy young lady.
I even once found a one hundred dollar bill in the parking lot at Davis Insurance and went and asked around until I found who it belonged too! I will not lie to you, I will and have made mistakes but I will come to you to fix them and handle it in a timely and professional manner. This is how we learn daily and I look forward to learning your profession and helping you. Thank you for your consideration.
