About

I'm a Minnesota transplant who's been in Delaware since 1994. I've been a mom since 1988, and have filled many mom roles in the past two decades. I've been a married SAHM, a part-time working mom, a back-to-college mom, a divorced mom, a full-time working single mom, a remarried stepmom.


I've been working at The News Journal for about 10 years, most of that time as a features copy editor -- writing headlines, captions, and editing stories. In the spring of 2007, we launched DelawareMoms -- now MomsLikeMe -- and my career path headed off in an unexpected and very fun direction!

I have two daughters of my own, and my husband has a son and daughter. We blended our families five years ago. We also have a "pleasingly plump" cat, Felix.
