Hobbies

Hiking, gardening, baking, eating waffles, giving my EM teammates and residents a hard time, and yearning for warm weather 9 months out of the year.

Favorite Things to Do in Milwaukee

Visiting the Farmer’s markets on the weekends. The South Shore Farmer’s Market is the best one in the area, especially if you like looking at the lake, drinking coffee, eating waffles, listening to live music, and walking aimlessly in a beautiful, tree-filled park.
