ABOUT ME

I grew up in Chicago and have lived her most of my life. I am a Chicagoan to the core. I love my beautiful city and all its neighborhoods, shady politics, delicious hot dogs, beautiful architecture, etc. That being said, I come from a family of travelers and have always been interested in traveling and/or living in other places.

I'm quitting my job at the end of january and going to mexico! first to work at C.A.S.A. - and organization that has maternity hospital, midwifery school and peer education programs. and then off to mexico city....to do what i'm not exactly sure, but i'll have to figure that out when i get there.
