Physics ExxonMobil Retired
Since I graduated in 1973 from RPI with a degree in Physics, I went on to
work for AT&T Long Lines for almost a year, before returning to RPI to teach
one semester, Remedial Physics, and Advanced Physics Lab. I married and moved
to the University of Wisconsin, where I got my MS and PhD in Oceanography and
Limnology with majors in geology and geophysics, respectively. I divorced and
moved to Houston, Texas to work for Exxon Production Research. I married again,
had two children, a girl, born in 1983, who is married now to a Naval officer,
and a son born in 1984, who is studying at the University of Texas, San Antonio,
to be a respiratory therapist.
Sadly, I divorced again, but happily I remarried in 2004. I guess I am
just the marrying kind.
I have been living and working in Houston since 1980 in the oil industry.
I retired from ExxonMobil with 27 years and 1 month of service two years ago. I
stayed retired only one year and became an independent geophysical contractor.
My husband, Ralph, a geologist, works in the same building with me, right across
the street from the downtown ExxonMobil building, where I teach yoga at lunch
time. I became a certified yoga instructor last November with 300 hours of
training.
My husband and I like taking road trips on our Harleys. He has an ultra
and I have a road king. They are big touring bikes. I had to have mine
modified so that I could reach the handlebars and my feet could touch the ground
when I stop. Here are a few pictures. I also have a tiny Honda rebel that I
use around the neighborhood...it isn't as loud, so I can snoop around easier.
The Dyna was my husband's first bike, which I stole from him and made it mine
so that he couldn't ride it anymore. He bought me the road king a couple of
years ago to replace it, since it was 10 years old.
Please encourage others to update their profiles. I don't see too many
people from RPI, but I did go to the 30th reunion.
