After moving all over the country as child, Talia has called the Chicagoland area home since graduating from Indiana University in 2007. While living in the city she worked at Florence G. Heller JCC where she taught the 2s, and worked at their After School Care program. After graduating from Erikson Institute, she worked at Haymarket Center in their Early Head Start program. Talia lives in Oak Park with her husband and two young daughters. When she isn’t hanging out with her kids or volunteering she can be found baking, reading, or planning their next family vacation.
