I am the editor of Beverly-Mt. Greenwood Patch and Palos Patch. I have been with Patch since May of 2010. As a lifelong resident of the area I am thrilled to provide our readers with stories that highlight all aspects of life in their neighborhood. Prior to Patch I covered politics in Chicago and environmental issues in Washington, D.C. I have a degree in political science from the University of Chicago and a masters degree in journalism from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University.
