I’m the owner of Icon Realty, brokered by Chippewa Valley Real Estate, and have been building and operating local businesses since 2014.
Over the years, one thing has remained constant—business owners thrive when they have the right people to challenge, support, and inspire them.
This curated dinner series was born from conversations with fellow entrepreneurs who, like me, value deep connections and thought-provoking discussions.
I’ve called the Chippewa Valley home since before I could make adult decisions, where I live with my husband, Logan, and our two
orange cat sidekicks, Waylon and Willie.
On a normal day, you’ll find me in a cozy outfit, a big cup of coffee in hand, talking with other likeminded individuals about the aspects of life that light us up.

All we ask is that you show up in clothing that makes you feel like the best version of you!
