“I was good with living in a larger city raising my children. Now they’re grown, and I have more flexibility in my life. I took a new job working for a manufacturing company in Alexandria, Minn., and it has been one of the best decisions I’ve made!
My field is Information Systems and Information Technology. I felt stuck in my old job and wanted a change to improve my knowledge and continue to grow my income, especially now that I am getting close to retirement. To my surprise, I’ve found that working in manufacturing gives me much greater opportunity to grow and exposes me to so many new and interesting things. I’m nowhere near ready to retire, I’m still having fun learning!
Living in Alexandria, MN, is the ‘icing on the lakes.’ The wide open spaces and hundreds of lakes offer the perfect lifestyle for people who enjoy the outdoors and quietness. I wasn’t looking to relocate, but I’m glad I did. I’ve made a great life for myself here!”
