Shannon is a stay-at-home mom of three littles: Kennedy (2018), Brayden (2020), and Kameryn (2022) who recently went back to work after spending the last six years as a stay-at-home mom. Born and raised in Stamford, CT, she traded in her NYC suburb upbringing for the farm life, now residing on a 36-acre family farm in Monroe, CT. A self-proclaimed "hot mess mom," she seeks to find the funny side of parenting and shed light on the fact that being a parent is challenging and hilarious at the same time. You can find her on the running trail in her spare time with a single or double running stroller and a "tiny coach" or two in tow. You may even catch her chatting with her backyard chickens and Henry, the rooster.
