Becky Waller
I have a B.S. in psychology with a second major in Criminal Justice and a Master's in Special Ed. I retired as a teacher in 2000, but it didn't agree with me so I became a truck driver for a few years. I quit that to build a house with my son which we are still working on as well as his mobile home which was damaged during Katrina. I am also trying to set up my library, I have a few thousand books! I am now trying to become a freelance writer in my spare time!
