About Lynmarie

I joined Legacy in 2005 as a part-time content screener, and through the years have had the pleasure to contribute to several teams and a variety of projects. I find myself somewhat on the path to “simple living” and working at Legacy seems to complement that journey. When not at work, I am usually having some kind of adventure—whether attempting to repair "this old house” of mine with my husband; hen-house helping at the learning farm with my kids; or attempting to cook from scratch (all by myself) in my kitchen. Occasionally I have time to do the things I am really good at –like pondering the mysteries of the universe.
