My info
My name is Linda Arendsen Garvelink. I was born in Zeeland, Michigan. I attended Calvin College and the
Univeristy of Minnesota; I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Business Adminstration (BBA) and a master's degree in
Business Adminstation (MBA) from George Washington University in Washington, DC. I have had a long career in the financial
services industry. I am married to William John Garvelink, who was born in Holland, Michigan; we met in high

career, I have accompanied him to this post; hence the title of my blog. I have started "LifePart2."

About this blog
Although encouraged by friends and colleagues, I resisted starting a blog. There's something about posting somewhat
personal thoughts and experiences so the world can see that makes me uncomfortable. But, after 8 weeks at Post, I have
come to the conclusion that this is the most efficient way to communicate in general with family and friends.
