Hailing from a small Mississippi River town in Iowa, my life has taken me on journeys I never could have predicted. After living in Iowa, Missouri, Albuquerque, Detroit, Boston and Baltimore in the last 8 years, I’ve now landed in Illinois. Together with my husband, Steve, and our cat, Bruiser, we’re trying to figure out where we all belong in this giant-unpredictable-crazy-beautiful world.
