I was born in Ohio and we moved to Texas when I started 6th grade. I went to school in Needville and graduated in 1985. I met my husband, Art Maya, through college friends and we were married in July, 1991. We have two beautiful daughters, Meagan & Leigh Ann, and gained a son-in-law, David (married Meagan) in 2019. In December 2021, we became grandparents to the most precious baby girl, Olivia Hope.
