I am also a mom to two energetic and amazing boys.
I started as the Publisher of Macaroni Kid Gurnee in December 2024, and this past year has been incredible. I’ve loved meeting so many amazing kids, families, and local business owners—and I’m excited for many more fun moments and collaborations ahead!
So grateful to my mom and family for all their support this past year—especially for helping with marketing and spreading the word about Macaroni Kid Gurnee out into the community!
Macaroni Kid is a newsletter packed full of fun family friendly events, articles, contests, giveaways, recipes, tips, advice, and plenty more. Every week a free e-newsletter will go to your inbox on Thursdays to keep you in the loop and include the latest fun events.
I enjoy taking my children to different events and fun places from movies, museums, Theme parks, trampoline fun zones, and water parks in the summer to sledding in the snow in the winter. I would love to take you on this journey of events with us. I have exciting things in store for our Macaroni Kid Gurnee Lake County, IL family.
Remember to keep an eye out for our newsletter for something exciting each week that comes to your inbox and checkout our Local Events calendar and Articles on our website.
