Monica Bernth: I Am Barnes & Thornburg

I AM...

• The blessed mom of Breezy, Dylan and Britta, with my first grandchild due Christmas day
• Someone who took a golf class in college to impress a boy who became my husband and best friend of 34 years
• A lifelong employee in the law field
• A small town girl from Tustin, Michigan (pop. 216) – my parents drove me to my first law firm interview in 1987, because I was too scared to drive in the big city of Grand Rapids
• A lover of country music, but I like to kick-start the day with Pitbull or Lizzo
• Part of a golf family, all three children were varsity golfers, with both daughters going on to play college golf
• Someone who played the saxophone in high school – trying to master the ukulele now
• A person who cherishes spending time with my family, friends and positive, happy people
• Someone who loves to laugh and admires a good joke – the cornier the better
• An outdoor enthusiast who enjoys bike riding, kayaking, boating, walking, and running
