“I was born in Chicago and I’ve lived in cities all over the country. Since moving to Peoria, I’m happy to say that I’ve found a caring and committed community that really shows up! My husband and I founded a nonprofit that inspires and empowers the community through the arts, education and culture, and the support we’ve received has been nothing short of extraordinary. From business to the arts to nonprofits and more, this region is full of special people, unique places and fun things to do. Of all the places I’ve lived, this is truly the place that feels most like home. We are proud to live and raise our daughter here in Greater Peoria!”
