This past week was crazy. There is no better word to describe it. I felt like I was pulled in a million different directions with personal life, work and AMA Iowa events. Whew — I am glad I made it through! The week was started off with a fantastic Pizza…

If you know me even at all, you know that I have a deep passion and love for the Iowa Chapter of the American Marketing Association (AMA Iowa). I have been on the board for almost three years (can’t believe it!), and I count myself lucky to serve with a…

Today is my big sister’s 30th birthday! I feel so lucky to have such an amazing sister that I also call my best friend. Amy has been there for me through thick and thin and is such a blessing in my life. Ever faithful, she is caring, funny, smart, genuine…
