Miss A Columnist

Born and bred in Minnesota, Cortney Galster is a consultant, writer and shoe-aholic living in the Twin Cities. She attended the University of St. Thomas where she double majored in marketing and financial management. She spent nearly eight years working on the secondary ticket market, where she was nationally recognized for her legislative work within the industry. These days Cortney is a small business consultant who specializes in improving websites and online search visibility. In her free time she enjoys spending time with her growing family, traveling and supporting various local non-profits. As a long time fashion lover, she has a penchant for style and shopping - although mommyhood has convinced her to run around in Frye boots and wedges more often than sky-high stilettos. You can read more of her work on her blog at The Mommyhood Project or follow her on Twitter at @cortneygalster.
