I have triplet 17 year old daughters Ava, Bailey and Carson who attend SJO High School. And they are completely different!

I have been married to SJO native John Mills for almost 21 years.

My Dad owned a pharmacy in Gibson City for 30 years where I grew up. It was a great place to hang out and watch him work or hear the latest town news from the TNT coffee club that met there twice a day for 20 years.

I lived in California for 2 ½ years after graduating from U of I, where I was in sales for M&M Mars. Reading the Thomas Guide maps and finding my way around southern California was a huge accomplishment lol.

I was huge into musical theater in High School. It was a pretty cool thing in GC because our music teacher was incredible.

I played on the tennis team in High School.

I love playing trivia of all kinds. Useless random knowledge is awesome.

My favorite place to travel is Ireland. I think I could live there – no problem! I am interested in all things Viking and Nordic.

I cannot wait to get to Sweden, Norway and Iceland.

We just got a Bernedoodle puppy named Rubie. I am not sure what I was thinking. It’s like having a two-year-old again but she’s faster.
