Plan a Springtime Brunch

March 31, 2009 Connie has had several careers in her lifetime: she was in sales management in specialty retailing; worked in sales and marketing for a pharmaceutical company, and started a medical device company in Boston. In 1998, she left a successful business career that spanned over 20 years in international marketing and sales in Kansas City, Milwaukee, Omaha, Cincinnati, and Europe to pursue her dream as an actor. Since then she has used her talents to be featured in commercials and collaborate on-stage in the thriving theatre scene in Chicago. And, now, as cookbook author and home chef, she's in another role that she loves. Her advice to the home chef reflects it all: have fun, plan ahead, experiment, and make it from scratch!
