About Me

Backgrounds
Myspace Graphics (glitter graphics)I think people would describe me as caring, sincere and loyal, sometimes to a fault. Through the years, I’ve met a lot of people from all walks of life, made great friends and even lost track of some. However, all of this has shaped me to become the person who I am today.I currently live on the north side of Chicago, where I’ve resided for more than two years. I grew up in Central Illinois, AKA farmland, and moved to the Chicagoland area more than three years ago. It’s amazing how time flies when you are having fun. I absolutely love everything the city has to offer, except for the horrible winters.I’m a total summer girl. I love flip flops, skirts, tank tops, the smell of sun tan lotion and frozen poolside drinks. A good summer day for me is spent near any body of water, whether it’s laying out near Lake Michigan or boating in Missouri at my parent’s lake. One day the Chicago winters will get the best of me and I will head to warmer temperatures year round.I’m a former newspaper reporter at both daily and bi-weekly newspapers. I ended my newspaper career on top as I received an award from the Illinois Press Association for first place in the best news series category. Finally the dedication and long hours paid off.Earlier this year I crossed over to politics as I am currently a press secretary for the Illinois House of Representatives, where I work in both Chicago and Springfield. I also freelance for a local Chicago newspaper on the side as I just can’t shake the noisy reporter part of me.

And even though you can kick back with a few drinks, you never let things get out of hand.

My Interests


You are a City Girl!
Whether you live in the city or not, you've got the heart of a city girl.
You're up on the latest trends - what's hot in music, food, and fashion.
And you love to be on the go. Your perfect day is filled with tons of fun.
Your perfect guy is a city guy, so head to LA, NYC, Sydney, or London to find him! What Kind of Girl Are You?Reading, hanging out with friends, going to dinner, watching movies, going to/and or watching basketball and baseball games. Right now I'm interested in anything law enforcement as I just completed a 36-hour course on community policing, where I had the best shots with a hand gun out of everyone else in my class! :)

I'd like to meet:

You Should Own a Yorkshire Terrier
Lively, sweet, and easy to carry. What Kind of Dog Should You Have?Johnna, you're most like Sophia While she may misplace her glasses often, Sophia's still sharp as a tack — mentally and verbally. You don't have to be Sicilian to be a sassy character like Sophia who's got her own opinions and ideas about everything.Smart and clever, you're wise beyond your years no matter how old or young you actually are. And underneath all that strong will, you've got a soft side and a big heart that makes you great to have around. When you're cooking, telling stories, or cracking everyone up, you're sure to liven up any event. Mama mia!

Music:

I listen to pretty much anything but country. I love, love, love Dave Matthews Band, U2, Coldplay, Howie Day, Madonna, Counting Crows and Starsailor.

Movies:

The Princess Bride, Hairspray, My Best Friends Wedding, Hope Floats, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, When Harry Met Sally, Office Space, In Her Shoes, Almost Famous and SWAT

Television:

Seinfeld, Sex and the City, Friends, Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, ER and CSI. Now that I'm not covering police anymore, I have to get my fix for men in a uniform through CSI and Rescue Me! :)
You Are Most Like Charlotte!
You are the ultimate romantic idealist
You've been hurt before, but that hasn't caused you to give up on love.
If anything, your resolve to fall in love is stronger than ever.
And it's this feminine optimism that men find most appealing about you.

Romantic prediction: That guy you are seeing (or crushing on)?

Could be very serious - if you play your cards right! Which Sex and the City Vixen Are You? mspmb allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" enableJSURL="false" enableJavaScript="false" allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" allowScriptAccess="never" allowScript

Books:

Latest favorite books are those about women in law enforcement such as my latest read "Special Agent: My life on the front lines as a woman in the FBI." Also love "Memoirs of a Geisha" and everything written by Jane Green and Jane Austin.
You Can Hang With the Guys and the Girls
You've struck a good balance between girlie and laid back.
You can keep it casual but when you dress up, you are as girly as the next girl. How Girlie Are You?
