About Amy:

Amy enjoys spending time with her husband, Michael and son, Zack. Originally from the Baltimore area, Amy is a fan of the Baltimore Orioles and the Baltimore Ravens. Luckily, the corresponding Philadelphia teams are in opposite leagues/conferences, so she can cheer for her hometown and adopted-hometown teams without much guilt. Amy loves anything purple, visiting independent bookstores, reading, gardening, and trying new recipes.
