About Me

I grew up in Northbrook, Illinois (yes, home of "hazing high" and John Hughes's 80s teen classics) with an amazing family who taught me what it is to be a good person. Without question, my brother and sister in law are my best friends, while their son is the absolute light of my life. And people who are in my life -- really in my life, mean the world to me.I always knew what I "wanted to be when I grew up" and pursued it from the start. I have been in Advertising & Events for over 12 years now and I am lucky enough to say that I have learned from some of the best.Over the years I have learned a lot about what's really important in life and I can say without question that you have to always be true to yourself... you can't let others (even for a second) make you second guess what you know in your heart to be true.Stand for something, or fall for everything.

Music really dictates a lot about my life, how I view and feel things. My whole mood or sense can change by virtue of the music that I'm listening to. Nothing transports me quicker.

Books:

Anything by James Patterson, Tom Clancy and W.E.B Griffin

Heroes:

My Mom -- you have never seen such strength of character as you do when you see someone take on breast cancer and watch them win. She never complained or blamed and never once lost hope. She never doubted that she was going to beat the cancer because she knew there was no way that she wasn't going to be around for her family. So to me, she will always be my hero.
