I began covering the city of Monroe and Monroe Local Schools for The Middletown Journal in May 2006. In October 2006, Cox Ohio Publishing launched a new weekly — The Monroe Pulse — focusing soley on the growing community, which borders Butler and Warren counties. I also write feature stories about people in the community and introduce you to new businesses locating there. I'm a native of Cleveland, Ohio and a graduate of the University of Cincinnati. I reside in Forest Park with my husband, Reg, and our energetic 3-year-old Rottweiler named Gabriel.
