I have been in Chicago for almost 20 years, after a few years in Boston. Worked in consulting and then 8 years ago co-founder a technology platform to make state and local government procurement easier.  We live in Lincoln Park and enjoy being able to walk around the city to restaurants, events, and parks.  I spend a lot of time going to kids sports or dance classes. Still love to swim, play golf and scuba dive (when I can).
