Occupation: I am the president of Intuitive Computer Systems at 111 Church Hill Road in Sandy Hook, which I have owned for 11 years. I graduated from the University of New Haven with a bachelor’s of science in computer science.

How Long in Newtown: I have been a resident of Newtown for 11 years. I grew up in Shelton and lived in various places before moving to Newtown.

Biggest Change Seen in Town: The biggest thing I’ve noticed is the improvement of the Sandy Hook area. There’s also a lot more traffic.

Family: I have been married to John Crouch for four years. I have five children, Dean, 29, who is a customer service representative; Danny, 10, and Joey, 7, who attend Sandy Hook Elementary School; Cindy, 4; and Tommy, 3.

Pets: I have a dog, Lucy, and three cats, PJ, Nala, and Copper.

Hobbies: I play chess and love to crochet afghans.

Favorite Books and Authors: I like to read biographies, they’re my favorite, and true mystery stories. I like books by Ann Rule, who does a lot of stories where people do things for unexplained reasons.

Favorite TV Show: My favorite would be Cheers, even though it’s not on anymore. I like classic TV. I don’t like anything that’s new.

Organizations: I am a member of the Chamber of Commerce and a networking group, Business Networking International.

Most Vivid Memory of Newtown: I really like Treadwell Park. I’ve played tennis there, and the kids like to play on the swings. When I was dating my husband, we went to a movie at Edmond Town Hall. I remember sitting in the balcony. On one of our first dates, we saw Private Benjamin there.

Favorite Vacation Spot: My favorite spot is the New Jersey shore when I can’t afford Disney World.

Personal Philosophy: If you want to do it, you can do it. I own my own company and have five kids, four at home. If you don’t find a way, it’s not something you really wanted to do.
