I am Colleen, a Chicago girl who loves a good story, and a packed weekend with people who make life feel full!

I am a naturally curious person and always planning something. A trip, a dinner, a celebration, a new idea or even a project around the house… Needless to say I love having something to do and something to look forward to. I am happiest when I am bringing people together, whether that is around a table, a patio, or just at home with the people I love most.

I am a big believer in making the everyday feel special. I put thought into a birthday card, remember the little details from trips, and get excited about finding the perfect restaurant and turning a simple idea into an entire plan.

I currently reside in Glenview, IL with my fiancé Jordan. I am also a person who considers us a dog family. ALWAYS! I am a sentimental person, but I also love having FUN. I love nostalgia, laughter, spontaneous plans, college football Saturdays, traveling somewhere new, and finding little stories behind just about everything.

At the end of the day, I think a good life is made up of good people, meaningful work, traditions, and a lot of happy moments that I wish I could bottle up and keep.
