             My name is Valerie Jo Erickson. I am a retired History Professor, with a Master's from ETSU. My Master's Thesis was regarding Elizabethan English Emblems. I have minor's and Associate Degrees in History, English, and Geography. I am currently pursuing artistic projects: painting, knitting, crocheting, writing and illustration. Also, Heavenly Father has led me to serve a mission with the FamilySearch Wiki Pages, as well as pursuing a degree in Family History Research. My absolute favorite thing to do is Research! I lived in Brasil for three years. Minha coracao e Paulista <3 I hope to be able to use my Portuguese and help the beautiful and wonderful Brasilian people. I am also trying to learn French. Oui!
