“I have a passion for historic Chicago. Although Chicago is young compared to other international cities, it has a long lost history we can only find in historic maps and physical evidence.”

  • Favorite Podcast
    I listen to Beautiful Anonymous, hosted by Chris Gethard. It is interesting to hear about other people’s experiences when they can be anonymous and allowed to speak without repercussions.
  • Favorite Book
    Rant by author Chuck Palahniuk
  • Tribune Tower or Marina City
    Marina City, because the curves molded of a course material add to the beauty of the building.
  • Lou Malnati’s or Gino’s East
    Lou Malnatis because Ginos East is for tourists.
  • Favorite City
    New Orleans.
  • Favorite Work of Art
    Fountain of Time sculpture by Lorado Taft at Washington Park
