Maurie Brown

Hello,

My name is Maurie Ann. I have called myself multi-directional--I seem to be doing many tasks and following more than one path all at the same time! I decided to make my life mean something and help others in crises. So, I started back to school in 2006 to head down the road to success. I found that school was just what I needed--I love to learn new things. So, I stretched community college out and took many extra classes. I don't regret it even though it has put a crunch on my financial means. I have learned so much and have a desire to learn more! I have almost earned my bachelors degree in General Studies, and hope to attend the Masters of Counseling program. During my educational path, I have worked in Security to maintain my home life and Volunteered for Animal Rescue organizations to help homeless pets in need. Recently, I have begun to work with families to help them by directing them to organizations that can address their needs. Also, I assist seniors with everyday needs. I have a very full and wonderful life, and it is my dream to one day build a retirement community so that those who gave their lives to our community can get back from that community--respect, safety, enjoyment, and everything they need to feel the same way.
