Tell us about the goal of Chicago Blogger Network.

"The goal of the network was filling a void I saw when returning to the Chicago market. As part of a network in L.A. and NYC, I kept asking myself how I would do it differently, and how I could use my talents to raise visibility of this new and electric market. The result was creating a space for bloggers to network and create more opportunities for exposure. In addition, it allows potential sponsors, partners, and advertisers to find the right 'match' when it comes to the projects they are working on."
