Happy 150 Years Cleveland Public Library!
Today marks 150 years for the Cleveland Public Library! If you’re from our beloved city than you know how important the institution is on so many levels, and for so many people: historically, architecturally and personally. Back in 2015 I wrote a blog about my love of CPL and growing up at the Slavic…
Glow at the Cleveland Botanical Gardens!
No matter what time of the year it is I love the Cleveland Botanical Gardens! Spring has the rebirth of nature, Summer is the flourishing of the floral and fauna, and Fall has the changing of the leaves. While the trees become barren in the Winter, the CBG shows that nature is still colorful and…
Cupid’s Undie Run 2018
Four years ago I did my first Cupid’s Undie Run in Cleveland. Back then it was held in the Tremont neighborhood, but is now held Downtown at the House of Blues. The first one I did was single digit temps (EMS was on hand!) and yet still had at least a thousand people braving…

I’ve been active since I was a kid: dance, cheerleading, gymnastics, acro, volleyball, softball…but I had to always watch my level of…
Baby Shamers
I honestly didn’t want to talk to her, but I was at a ‘ladies that lunch’ type of event so I had to. She asked halfheartedly how I was and I said “Great! Busy as always!” with a chuckle. She then says to me, in all seriousness, “Yeah, I just had a kid so…
Cupid’s Undie Run 2016!
Recently I participated in the Cupid’s Undie Run, my second time since it came to Cleveland 4 years ago. For those not familiar, the Cupid’s Undie Run was created in 2010 as a fun way to raise money and awareness for The Children’s Tumor Foundation. The Foundation is dedicated to raising money for research to…
Wrapping Up 2015

The People’s University: A Look Inside The Cleveland Public Library
I grew up an avid reader, and practically lived at the Fleet Branch of the Cleveland Public Library. I believe that libraries are one of the most important resources we have as a community. To shine a light on our Cleveland Public Library’s importance I produced a special to showcase both the history of its…
