About Me

Isla
I have been happily married to my college sweetheart-James-since March 2003. He is a mechanical engineer at Syntron in Saltillo. We have two wonderful November babies: I went into labor with James 'Jake' William on Thanksgiving Day 2005 and Marion 'Mari' Ruth was born twenty-five minutes before Jake's second birthday in 2007. I finished my masters degree in May 2006 and took a break to play Mommy before starting my Ph.D. in the Fall of 2008. We completed our family with baby surprise Alice "Ali" Anne in February 2010.
