Emily Paster, Neighbor

I'm a mom of two young kids, ages 7 and 4, living in River Forest. I'm a lawyer by training, but no longer practicing. I teach part-time at Loyola, and do some free-lance writing. I love to cook and, during the Oak Park Farmer's Market season, I am an avid canner. I write about the struggle to stay engaged current as a suburban mom on my blog, West of the Loop.

We love the urban-suburban feel of the OPRF community and enjoy spending time with our friends and neighbors.
