She hosts a local book club every six weeks, where she’s known for her humor, sharp wit, and the occasional deep dive into spicy romance novels. Whether she’s deciphering her kids’ ever-changing trends, chauffeuring teens to their next adventure, or finding joy in the everyday chaos, Alycia brings a relatable, laugh-out-loud perspective to the beautifully imperfect life of a modern mom.

Alycia is also the newest voice in Effingham Magazine, where she pens the column “Mom-ing Unfiltered.” Through her candid and relatable writing, Alycia shares the joys and challenges of motherhood in a way that resonates with readers. Her column provides a refreshing perspective on parenting, reminding local moms that they are not alone in their struggles and triumphs.
