Greetings Northsiders! Although I’m familiar with the Northside, I’d like to share with all of you a brief introduction. I am originally from Chicago, Illinois and moved to Madison in 2016 with my family. I am a mother of two, a certified life coach and entrepreneur. I have two businesses that operate on the Northside right off International Lane. Enrichment Unlimited offers coaching and consulting services for those looking for personal or entrepreneurial development. Endearment Unlimited is a home care agency that provides supportive home care services to the elderly and those with disabilities in Dane County and several other counties in the state. I also serve on the Dane Buy Local board. When I am not working or serving as a board member, I enjoy spending quality time with my children or going to visit with my family in Chicago.

I was introduced to the Northside in 2019 when Endearment Unlimited relocated from the east side. I quickly felt a strong sense of community and belonging. The Northside has much to offer, and I am excited about learning more about the neighborhoods, businesses and organizations that call the Northside home.

I would like to thank the Northside Planning Council’s Board of Directors for voting me as the new board chair of the organization. I want to give a special thanks to Lauri Lee for introducing me to this organization and its board. I am very proud of the work that NPC has done over the years and I look forward to working and growing alongside our directors, Chris Brockel and Justin Markofski, as we continue with the vision and mission of NPC. I am looking forward to the opportunity to connect with many of you throughout the year during the various events planned on the Northside.
