In short, I am a daughter, soldier, wife, mother, and nurse.
I am the middle of three children and I grew up in Strongsville, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland. I graduated from Strongsville High School and immediately joined the Army as a Military Intelligence Signals Intelligence Analyst. I was sent to the Defense Language Institute in Monterey, California at the Presidio of Monterey where I studied Arabic and met my husband, William Lux.
I spend 13 years in the Military Intelligence Corps before attending nursing school through the Army Enlisted Commissioning Program at Georgia Southern University in Statesboro, Georgia. I earned my BSN in 2007.
In my 20+ year career, I have been stationed at the Presidio of Monterey, California; Goodfellow Airforce Base, Texas; Fort Gordon, Georgia; Wiesbaden, Germany; Fort Huachuca, Arizona; Fort Stewart, Georgia; and most recently, Fort Sam Houston Texas. I have also spent some time in Egypt, Albania, and Afghanistan.
Through the Army I have been able to earn an Associate's Degree in Military Intelligence Operations from Cochise College, a BSOE in Arabic Studies and Foreign Languages from Wayland Baptist University, a BSN from Georgia Southern University, and I am now attending the Army-Baylor MHA/MBA program.
