Help Western Springs Woman Help Haiti
Jessica Eileen Drogosz is raising money to help her and her sister get to Haiti, where they'll work with Thirst Relief to bring clean water to the troubled country.

Bio: I am a news nut who graduated with a journalism degree from DePaul University in 2009. I have been infatuated by the media industry since I picked up an issue of the Minneapolis Star Tribune at age 9 and started reading the weather page. Later, it was the sports section and, eventually, the front. I never wanted to be anything other than a news editor.
I have worked at the Chicago Tribune, The Chicago Reporter, the U.S. Olympic Committee press office, and the Chicago Cubs publications department.
My favorite music is by Paul Simon and my favorite movie is The Big Lebowski. I also love playing and watching any sport—just try me.
