Liz was born and raised in Greater Cincinnati and is passing down her love for the Northern Kentucky/Cincinnati community to the next generation. She and her husband, Bradley, and their two tweenage kids live in Fort Thomas where they can be found attending sporting events, hiking, and enjoying other activities together. Some of her favorite “Cincinnati” things to do include watching Bengals games, talking about what high school she went to, and, of course, eating Skyline Chili.

When Liz is not at work, she spends her time volunteering, advocating, and fundraising. Particularly for causes related to education, outdoor experiences/summer camping, and the disability community. She has taken leadership roles in several organizations over the years including the Greater Cincinnati YMCA, Brighton Center, Charities Guild of Northern Kentucky, Redwood Rehabilitation Center, and, most recently, the Fort Thomas Education Foundation.
