When you have run a group for 12 years, you tend to do it without thinking after a while. It’s truly motor memory and, oftentimes, I don’t even realize I am commenting, deleting, rejecting, and approving. That tends to be okay until I fall asleep with my finger on a post and you all, our beautiful members, wonder what auiashfkjwherfihasd means! This is why, little by little this year, Annapolis Moms, our group, and Annapolis Moms Media (our Instagram, website, 3 newsletters, and soon to be Quarterly Publication) has grown to include a family of staff who were members first and who have loved our group for many years. I am working on not being the one to post all the time but to ask you to love these people (or get annoyed by them) the same way you do me. They are a part of the growing Annapolis Moms Family and without them, we wouldn’t be able to support you in all the ways we do. So here is another introduction!
Sandy Biello- Our fearless Marketing Director- bringing you snazzy reels and all the best deals…always a fighter for small business, tirelessly championing the little guy.
Chelsea Harrison- Editor in Chief, but everyone around here calls her Chelsea the Butcher. If it’s on Annapolis Moms and it has words, she probably had something to do with it.
Jeff Peri- Our Operations Guy — if it needs doing, he can probably figure it out! The man behind the curtain, making sure all the buttons do what they’re supposed to; Lisa’s partner in crime…and in life.
Jessica Opert- OG administrator and one of the Annapolis Moms legendary founders…minding the gate to the group and approving your posts like it’s her job…because it is.
Frank Bolinsky- Everyone’s favorite Dad-around-town, letting you know about the best deals and play destinations…and don’t worry, it’s just a loving bluff when he says he will turn this car around if you ask one more time.
Happy holidays to all our moms!
