Biography

I was born on October 20, 1989 in Peoria, Illinois to my parents Karen and Patrick McMenamin.  I grew up in Morton, Illinois with my two older sisters Kate and Maggie.  Now, I also have a brother-in-law and a nephew that I absolutely adore.  I am in my third year at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville working towards a degree in Public Relations.  I love my job in the SIUE Marketing and Communications department where I am a student worker.  In my free time, I like to draw, run, hike and play soccer.  I am looking forward to graduating in the Spring of 2012 and starting my life as a public relations professional.
