Blog Category: Life as a 20 something, sewing, DIY, wedding
Description:
I am a twenty-something young professional living in Cincinnati, Ohio. I've been here since May of 2008, and I have fallen in love with this city!



We recently moved to a new house, which I love more each and every day. We're having fun choosing paint colors, building furniture and sewing curtains.



I'm a social worker, and I work for a fantastic non-profit called Leadership Scholars. I spend my days helping inner-city kids in Cincinnati become leaders. Not a bad gig!
One of my students recently told me that I'm a young person with old person hobbies - which is totally true. My first love is quilting, but I've recently branched out to try other sewing projects. I love anything do-it-yourself.
Zac and I live with our anti-social cat who is cute but hates everyone but us. Our house doesn't have central air, so the no-blowdryer-casual-beach hair will be here until it's cooler outside! I had 10 minutes of fame as an MTV reporter a few years ago and my Gramma and I have all the same interests.

Announcing the Member Map

Introducing our new map of Members which can be accessed via the Member Map link to the right.  This map is made up of all the members of the Alpha Gam Blog Network categorized by Current City and Chapter.
Each balloon color represents a chapter, and if you click on the balloon it will bring up the title and link of the Blog and the name of the blogger. I thought this would be a cool way of visualizing where our Network reaches.
