position of Inventory Accounting Manager. When not working, she enjoys time spent
with
her family, scrapbooking, other crafts, and gardening. She loves spending time with
her
horse, cat, and a new member of the family Buddy, the great black lab, which has
been a
great source of comfort since her son joined the Corps.
Paula joined Marine Parents as a volunteer to give back to an organization and
community
that has been a primary source of support from boot camp until the present. The
information
provided by the volunteers was a source of comfort in understanding the different
stages
and processes. The newfound family of the groups has provided support and
strength, as
we are all on this journey together. Paula looks forward to continuing to build
relationships
and help support families on this shared adventure.
