I left my window office at a law firm in the Windy City to come home to the Crescent City to sell and promote Louisiana seafood! My heart lies in the Islenos fishing communities in St. Bernard Parish where I grew up the daughter of a third generation commercial fisherman. This is my appeal to seafood lovers, especially in Louisiana.
