In 1975, I began working for Lockheed in
Sunnyvale, California. My first job was in cost accounting, and I advanced to company
auditor. I was promoted to senior administrator for the engineering group in
Sunnyvale and then as the Hubble Space Telescope program senior administrator.
I managed the hundreds of staff who were sent to Kennedy Space Center (KSC) for the
Hubble processing and launch in 1990. I was offered a position with Lockheed Space Operations Company at KSC. I accepted, and moved to Florida. I worked at KSC from 1990 until 2010, when
I retired. I am now the president of Space Coast Cancer Foundation and serve as a docent for NASA at KSC.
I have been busy in my retirement days
and have fond memories of my 35 years with Lockheed Martin. I have seen many of my
former co-workers at reunions and events here at KSC.
