Simple Is…

I’m pretty simple.

I enjoy a good PB & J and chocolate to “eat dirty,” salmon and a kale salad when I don’t.

You see me most of the time wearing dresses, with my hair and makeup done for TV … but my favorite “look” is a ponytail, running shirt and jeans. The “short” girl in me likes to wear a snazzy and comfortable wedge – but it has to be the kind you can walk the city in … and yes, those exist.

Oh, and flip flops … I love flip flops, for when the Midwest weather allows it.

Sun's out ... Sunglasses out.

I'm a klutz. So it's a complete "user error" when I say I break my sunglasses all the time. Like. All. The. Time. Drop 'em. Sit on 'em. #Klutz
Streeeeetch!

I love this photo. The sky, the stretch. It screams everything I feel on a beautiful sunny day ... take it all in!
Ponytail. Sweats. Laptop.

It's my preferred "prep uniform" if you will. And this spot is one of my favorites to work. By the window, water and city views in sight (for those spacing out moments). ;-)
Hey, You!

This picture is brought to you by the Cubs. My Fitbit. And Apple. I work with a lot of devices, ya have to these days...so this is Device Lady at her finest ...
Dog Lover.

This isn't my dog. In fact, any picture you see with me and a dog won't be my dog. But I love dogs. I have since I was little. My travel schedule won't allow me to have one responsibly...so I borrow other people's dogs and pretend they are my own. :)
Aunt Lisa

Love these guys.
My Kind of Town.

So many days I stand at the Chicago lakefront taking it all in. I just love this city.
Laugh.

Laugh often. Love lots.

Not gonna fool ya ...

As I get older, I appreciate the value of transparency and "real" conversations more and more.
Sun's out...guns out.

I'm really not trying to flex. Honestly. Wind got my sleeve.
Smile!

Smile. You'll probably get one back.
Selfie!

I took this during a "fitness" fashion show to benefit charity. You can't take yourself too seriously.
Love Life!

Find fun no matter where you are! :)
Giving Back....

I love kids, and I love giving my time to kids. For years now, I make sure I give my time to various children's hospitals in the country. C.S. Mott in Ann Arbor and Ann & Robert H. Lurie in Chicago are two of my favorites. This picture was taken in the Fall '16 during a football visit to Ann Arbor, our crew became a part of the #WhipCancer challenge.
Cubs Win!

I totally got caught up in the Cubs World Series run hype. The city was so awesome to live in during this time. I got to share one of the World Series games with our BTN softball analyst Carol Bruggeman, who grew up a Cubs fan. We had a blast!
