I like to say I married into the St. Charles madness. My husband is from here & I feel lucky to have this be my adopted home. My favorite thing to do in STC is discover the wellness community & all it has to offer.

I've lived in St. Charles for 20 years, raised my 2 kids here & am extremely loyal to the community. I sometimes say, St. Charles runs through my veins. My favorite thing to do in STC is to listen to live music outside in the plaza for STC Live or Jazz Weekend!

I was born and raised in St. Charles and my Grandparents actually met while working at the Hotel Baker! I love the River Front and all of the restaurant & entertainment options. I am passionate about making St. Charles a great place to live & visit.

I am excited to work for a city that is so passionate about the individuals who live here & the businesses that are located here. My favorite food is doughnuts and Bosa Doughnuts always hits the spot! St. Charles has endless things to do, it is one-of-a-kind!

Having lived in St. Charles my whole life, I have such a great fondness of this city. Everywhere you go you feel a sense of community, and that togetherness is what makes St. Charles so special. I love the variety of businesses here — especially our local shops like Trend & Relic and Jeans & a Cute Top Shop!

Although I was raised in Geneva, St. Charles has become a second home. I enjoy all the exciting & fun activities here. STC is thriving & everyday I look forward to how we can continue to make the city grow for everyone!

I love St. Charles because there is nothing this town doesn't have. My favorite things to do is go out for a night on the town with friends & family. There is nowhere else I would rather live & work!
