There is nothing more I like to do than share my city with media who have never been here -- and even those who have grown to love us! I think of myself as a tourist in my hometown every day. I am unapologetically Midwestern, and true to those roots. I love to eat things on a stick, be outdoors, and of course, shop! You'll find me trying the “it” restaurant, checking out the newest shops and visiting museums or watching plays. I am the PR manager at Meet Minneapolis and it is here that I will share all that I seek out in attractions, restaurants, shopping and cool events in Minneapolis Saint Paul.
