Welcome to my little corner of the internet. I’m so glad you’re here.

As a mom, journalist and St. Louis native, I wanted a space to share all the things that make my life – and this city – so special.

As a reporter, I spend my days chasing stories, meeting interesting people and working to keep my community informed. But life isn’t all about breaking news. When I’m not in front of the camera, I’m at home juggling motherhood, discovering local gems in St. Louis and figuring out how to balance it all. That’s what this blog is all about: blending the excitement of my career, the chaos of real-life motherhood, and the beauty of this vibrant city.

On the blog, you'll find:

• The Best of St. Louis: From the newest food spots to fun family activities, I’m always on the lookout for the best places and events to explore. St. Louis has so much to offer and I want to share the best of it with you.

• Real Life Motherhood: Motherhood isn’t perfect, and I’m here to share the highs, the lows and everything in between. Whether it’s tips for surviving the chaos or just a relatable mom moment, you’ll find it here.

• Behind the Scenes: I went part-time last year and I am still navigating working as a TV news reporter and podcast host and being home more with my kids. I figure I can’t be the only one navigating a transition in life, so why not share it? Come behind the scenes and maybe we’ll figure some of this out together.

My goal is to inspire, inform, and create a space where we can all connect. Whether you’re a fellow mom, a St. Louis enthusiast, or someone curious about the world of journalism, I hope you find something here that resonates with you.

Thanks for stopping by – I’m so glad you’re here!
