About Leah Dubs

I am a born and somewhat raised local, having lived most of my years in Chicago, and some in the surrounding suburbs. My favorite memories as a mini Chicagoan growing up include screaming at the top of my lungs anytime Michael Jordan scored a basket, begging my mother to take us to The Taste of Chicago, Millennium Park in the Summer, and who could forget those cows?! I love this city. I'm here for all of it.
