All About Me

I grew up in Troy, Michigan which makes me a Michigander at heart. I come from a large family, containing two brothers and two sisters. One of my brothers was adopted from South Korea which made for an exciting childhood. I moved to Illinois to get my teaching degree at Augustana College. After College, I decided to move to Chicago to begin my teaching career.  


I have lived in Chicago for 17 years and reside in the Edison Park neighborhood with my husband, Phil, and our three sons, Landon (11), Harrison (9), and Duke (6).  As a family, we enjoy talking walks, playing at the city's wonderful parks, and cooking together. I enjoy reading and gardening, along with baking. Spending time with my family is the most important thing to me. 

A Few of My Favorites Things:
Drink: Coffee ☕️ and Diet Dr. Pepper 
Candy: Bark Thin Chocolates (dark chocolate, almond, and sea salt) and Snickers 
Hobby: Reading, cooking, baking, & gardening 📚
Restaurant: Harp & Fiddle, Tavern on the Point, and Pennyville

Travel Destination(s): Ljubljana, Slovenia & Budapest Hungary
Store: Target and Amazon
Snack: Trail Mix, Animal Crackers, and Wheat Thins
