Like my father, I believe living in and raising a family here in Oak Park and River Forest has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Oak Park/River Forest is all about the beautiful homes, great nightlife, weekend activities, parks, schools, and its famously short commute time to downtown Chicago. I love showing people the neighborhoods and homes and sharing my experiences growing up and raising my family in Oak Park and River Forest. The village has always been changing and it is more exciting now than ever!…
