Liz is a second generation Cubs fan and Chicago native currently residing in Baltimore. Her Cubs shrine includes a Kerry Wood action figure, an autographed Scott Sanderson card, a lucite-encased 1984 ivy leaf, and enough scorekeeping pencils for a game of pick-up sticks. When not watching the Cubs, she can be found reading and avoiding yardwork.
