When Tim came to me and said he wanted to open a business I was very nervous. There is a tremendous amount of responsibility in owning your own business, and I supported him through the entire process. TMS (Total Monitoring Services, Inc.) is an exciting, challenging and fun place to work. 

I did not work full time at TMS in the beginning; I was an employee of the State of California, General Services. I retired from service July 2007 with 27 years of employment. After retiring from the State, I found myself working at TMS regularly, and I must say it is a joy.  

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with  my family, going on family outings, going for walks with our dog (Rudy) and enjoy helping our son (Andy) get through college.
