Having completed four marathons as a mother of three, including the coveted Boston Marathon (with a personal best time), Beth learned a lot about her own body, nutrition and the body/mind connection. Due to running injuries, she was faced with the challenge of working through her pain to find healthy solutions that supported her body rather than medicating it. Her natural instinct to research and delve into nutrition and wellness topics brought her to a place of health, happiness, and a personal best marathon time in Boston.

Beth served on the original Executive Committee and developed and created the guidebook for Cool Globes, an artistic global warming exhibit that appeared on Chicago's lakefront in the summer of 2007. She is also on the development committee for the NFP Organization, The Heart of the Heartland, in Glenview, Illinois. The organization's mission is to plant seeds of hope in women through a luncheon lecture series. Beth also regularly volunteers at her children's schools, often donating nutritional and media-based projects for the parents and classroom projects.

Beth's publishing debut in the Chicken Soup for the Soul series book, Power Moms (Simon & Schuster 2009), recounts her touching story about her serious car accident and recovery and how it impacted her as a mother.

In her free time, Beth runs, swims, enjoys Bikram yoga, plays golf with her family, is challenged by Sudoku, prepares raw food recipes and has a passion for the Indiana dunes. Beth lives with her husband, Tom, three sons, and two Tibetan Terriers in Chicago's Lincoln Park.
