WreckedGirl....what's that all about?

My name’s Marilyn Vaughn. Thanks for visiting my site. My site gets its name from a day that forever changed my life: May 19, 2008. It was on that day that I had a serious car wreck and suffered a traumatic brain injury; I injured the parts of my brain that control short-term memory, emotions, and personality.  

Modern-Day Miracles

Miraculously I did not break a single bone during the accident. Doctors projected  6-18 months for my recovery. I returned to high school 3 months after my accident, and graduated on time with my class a year to the day of the accident, on May 19, 2009. I graduated from the University of Alabama, Magna Cum Laude, and worked for 4 years as a News Producer. I  completed my MBA at the University of Southern California.  After a long job hunt for a full-time job post-MBA, I got a job in the middle of a pandemic on 4/1/2020--April Fools Day--I'm not even kidding! I now work at an IT consulting company in Project Management.
