Anyone special you’d like to thank for helping you through parenthood?
When we lived in the city, I joined the Neighborhood Parents Network. I still talk to and see those friends and their kids! They got me through the first year of being a new mom.
Are you involved in a business venture, a local organization, a creative endeavor, or in the corporate world? Please share!
This is my 2nd year in the Hinsdale Chapter of the Infant Welfare Society. I’m a Benefit Co-Chair for our big spring luncheon called Tablescapes. It’s a gorgeous luncheon on September 20, 2020 at 12 pm and we raise about $100,000. I’m also a realtor at d’aprile properties in Hinsdale and absolutely love helping my clients find the joy in buying and selling their home!
How has this community been instrumental in getting you to where you are now?
Hinsdale is the most charitable community I’ve ever been a part of. There are just SO many ways to be involved, volunteer, and give back. It’s so much fun too.
