Miriam Louise Piechocinski was born on February 26, 2013 (10 days late!) and was 7lbs 15oz and 18 inches long.  My husband, Matt, and I continue to have our hearts melted with her adorable smiles and expressions.

I completed my Dissertation and graduated with my PhD, December 2011 and have been employed as an assistant Professor at Rush University Medical Center’s College of Nursing since August 2012. My husband Matt Piechocinski is a Benedictine University Graduate (’97) and an IIT masters (lost track of that year).
