Paula, who works out of a modest 1940's farm house, assumes the major responsibility for web design and maintenance.  She retired from the University of Central Oklahoma in 2001 and returned to Ryan, Oklahoma where she grew up.  Shortly after moving back, she ran into Larry Roark at the town dumpster when they both went to dump their trash at the same time.  They had dated briefly in high school and were soon inseparable.  They married in 2003.  When not working on webs, she spends time helping him take care of cattle.  She particularly enjoys rescuing orphan baby calves.

Paula, who retired as Professor of Economics, developed her first website to provide information for her classes.  She says the highlights of her academic career were teaching at a university in Mexico and being a Fulbright Scholar to Turkey. 

She hates cluttered webs, webs that are hard to navigate and she really hates animation -- but she admits that that probably goes with the gray hair.  She prefers e-mail to the phone and checks hers several times a day.  She thoroughly enjoys working with Mike, her younger brother, and says he acts just like he did growing up.
