Jessica is a busy city mom residing in downtown Chicago, IL who is a new mom to her son, Johnny, who was born a month pre-mature on Christmas Day 2011. She is a graduate of the University of Illinois at Chicago and has her B.S. in Kinesiology and also has her Personal Training and Nutrition Consultant Certifications. By day, Jessica is busy running around the city shopping, meeting up for play dates, and enjoying the fruits Chicago has to offer; during nap times she is busy networking with local businesses, blogging for multiple websites, doing research on all things baby/fitness/fashion, and juggling household chores. Jessica grew up a ferocious three sport athlete who also saved her allowance for shopping sprees at Nordstrom and Tiffany’s, making her the perfect combination of athlete and fashionista! Currently, Jessica is enjoying spending as much time with her son and soon to be husband as possible, learning how to balance being the rockstar wife/mom/business woman, hitting the gym religiously, and navigating the streets of Chicago to discover exciting opportunities for her baby and family.
