Who was your mother before she had you?

Sometimes we forget about the lives our parents had before they were parents.

Zack Shepard recently graduated from Georgia Tech. He sat down with his mother, Kim Hepler, who is also a Georgia Tech graduate, and asked what life was like for her after graduation.
