While at Penn State University Michelle studied abroad in Spain.

After graduating Michelle moved to Vermont and fell in love with biking and cross-country skiing the amazing local food scene beautiful mountains and Lake Champlain.
Michelle and her husband Josh have two sons. Michelle’s hidden talent in the kitchen is making dinners from “scratch” (especially on busy nights) such as sautéing chopped veggies and a little cheese from the fridge and serving it with rice or pasta and adding a pot of something tasty from her overflowing pantry. Michelle loves to cook and passes her enthusiasm on to the boys by involving them in the process—from making a grocery list to chopping cooking on the stove and washing the dishes. The family stays active outdoors by hiking and snowboarding and helps organize a charity mountain bike ride and trail run that raised tens of thousands of dollars to fund research into a friend’s medical condition.
