She has been employed by Wyle Labs, Tri County Transit and currently KBR-Wyle as a Contracts Manager.

Her talent and love of soccer led her to coach… starting with youth soccer camps while she was in college. She coached numerous youth teams and assisted at Chopticon High School soccer and Calvert Soccer Association. When she wasn't coaching or working she enjoyed taking vacations to Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee, Mexico, the Caribbean and North Carolina Outer Banks. She loved the outdoors and would often go on hikes, play golf, or take a stroll on the beach. She enjoyed cheering on the Dallas Cowboys and the Chelsea Football Club. She had a special place in her heart for animals and loved Nemo, her Jack Russell Terrier who accompanied her on many adventures.

In addition to her parents and stepmother Deborah, she is survived by her children, Austin Harradine of Clements, MD and Kyle Harradine of St. Leonard, MD; her sister Rhonda Marie Shoopman (Monty) of Alameda, CA, and her granddaughter, Luna Harradine.
