Columbus, Ohio has so much to offer, that I feel it necessary to break these posts down into categories. In this post, let’s talk about the dining scene. One can find just about any type of food in this diverse and moderately large city of just over 900,000. If you are looking for casual dining,…

After a few weeks to enjoy with family at home, I was back on the road…this time, headed for Columbus, Ohio. Just weeks earlier I was fortunate enough, as timing would have it (timing is the name of the game in this line of work), to learn about a job opening in a fetal care…

Nyack, NY offers a lot when it comes to proximity: on the one hand, it is geographically close to New York City and all its conveniences; on the other hand, it is far enough away to provide residents with the suburban appeal they are looking for when it comes to homeownership.

But that is only half of the things to be considered when deciding whether a career in this field is for you. Let’s dive deeper into this topic. As a travel sonographer, much of your paycheck…

Many people ask me if I enjoy being a travel sonographer and away from home so much. The answer to the first part of that question is a heartfelt and resounding YES! The second part of that question is a bit more complicated than a one word answer. Do I enjoy being away from home…

Washington, D.C. has so much to offer! Whether it be visiting any number of free museums, walking the National Mall to take in the iconic landmarks while getting some exercise, or grabbing a bite to eat, the opportunities for a fun day trip are endless…and all of that is just the tip of the iceberg!…

The proximity of Washington, D.C. to Alexandria, Virginia is so close, a simple drive across the Potomac River is all that separates the two. Although, I have to be honest, I am not a big fan of driving into this large and congested city when there are other better ways to get around using public…
