    A little about myself.

    Just a girl, born and raised at Lake Tahoe. Moved to Orange County to get my degrees in Nursing and Marine Biology.

    Rescued and rehabilitated marine mammals at the Pacific Marine Mammal Center for 8 years. Included some pics of my babys raised and placed in zoo's all over the world.

    Avid scuba diver.

    Maybe not the forum for this, but it seem that I get mistaken for a guy a lot. I figured Corailline would be a dead give away.

    At one time or another I have had most types of systems with the exception of a cold water, but there is still time.

    My Ursala, she was the best and so smart. Miss her even today.

    And for those that have seen my horrible spelling and grammer, life long dyslexia.::)

    I always thought you were a lady. I agree your screen name did it.

    I assumed you were a woman as well. But rescuing seals is awesome! I am currently going to school to get a degree in marine biology as well.

    Yup screen name did it....
    I too have dyslexia but have learned to cope as far as spelling goes(as mine is somewhat mild) though reversing letters happens a lot ...oh and don't listen when I tell you left or right just go the way I'm pointing...LOL.
    My dad has it worse and can't spell worth beans, but holds seveal bachelor degreees (one in mathamatics and another in accounting + one more in???) and a masters degree in teaching.

    Cool that you get to work with marine life.

    Always knew you are a woman. Love your posts and always seem to learn something new from them. :)

    I knew you were a girl, but it's always nice to learn something more about the person behind the screen name.
