Proud to live and do business in McLean County

Like many young people who come to town to go to school, I fell in love with the Bloomington-Normal community and decided to stick around. I graduated here, met my husband here, had a kid here, and own properties here—you could say I’m invested.

As a social media manager who works primarily from my home office just north of Normal Illinois, technically I can take clients from anywhere. But engaging with my neighbors in McLean County and the thriving small business community in our area is my favorite thing to do. So 90% of my client work happens for small businesses and nonprofits right here in Central Illinois.

Are you looking to foster an online presence that reflects the depth of our area’s business community? I got you. Slide on over to the Contact tab and send me a note—be sure to mention that you’re local! Interested in my other local-only offers? Scroll down ⬇️

IRL EVENTS in BLONO (and beyond)

I love to host meetups and networking events in and around Bloomington and Normal areas. These events are almost always focused on small businesses, often women- or mother-owned, but take a look at the calendar and see if anything coming up might be a good fit for you!

Something else to note is that there are events on this calendar that are not hosted by me but I’m sharing them here because I will be there and there’s shared relevance to the things I’m passionate about—and thus likely of interest to you, if you’re here! The hosts are always listed on the event.
