Michalene’s
career at Digital started as a temp, programming access cards for Russ
Rossini in the Security Department at MRO1. She was hired permanently
in 1984 to program access cards and print badges for all Digital
contractors. After 2 years or so she accepted a Secretarial position the Regional
Facilities Group in MRO3, where she worked for Steve Sur and Carm Corrente,
supporting a group of approximately 30 - Project Managers, Planners,
Electrical, Mechanical and Design Engineers, contractors and support staff –
typing the specifications for all the building designs and retrofits.
She attended
training whenever possible, and completed more than 30 classes relating to
word processing, presentations, marketing, accounting software and some
entry level programming courses. Later she transferred to John Peachey’s
SPOC (Specifications on COMPUTER group) in Northboro, MA. There
she worked for Steve Marini as an Administrative Secretary for a short time
and was later promoted to Project Specialist, setting up SPOC accounts for
employees around the world. She went on to become a Program Manager,
coordinating the work of several programmers on various internal software
development projects and providing training as the products rolled out.
After 10 years with Digital she left Digital and accepted a position as
Director of Program Management with the Regional Employment Board, followed
by Career Counselor at Bernard Haldane Associates, and Office Manager at a
small MetLife Office.
After years of
working for others, she developed an interest in antiques. In 2002 she
found the perfect location to open Antiques And Collectibles Mall of New
England. She purchased the 17,000 square foot historic Prescott
Grain Mill building on New Hampshire’s Scenic Route 45 in June 2002.
She spent 3 months working on repairs and improvements with the help of many
friends and family, and the doors opened on Labor Day weekend.
Today, Michalene
and her partner, Keith Turmel, operate Antiques And Collectibles Mall of New
England, their retail store in Greenville NH. It is a clean,
comfortable, friendly environment with a wide variety of items at reasonable
