Hello, my name is Jon Szabo, and I have been a Grayslake resident for the past seven years. I am a very passionate sports fan, and a downright fanatic about the Chicago Bears.  After spending ten years in various positions in the construction industry, I finally decided to start making my English/Journalism degree work for me.  I am thrilled to have this opportunity to write for the Patch, and try to convey some of what makes Grayslake such a great town.

My wife Kristy and I welcomed our daughter Abigail to the world in September of 2009, and since I moved around an awful lot as a child, I am very much looking forward to making Grayslake her hometown.  I am currently pursuing my teaching certification, and it would be a dream come true to land at one of the Grayslake schools.  Even after I become a teacher, I would like to continue to contribute to Patch.com and share my enthusiasm for this town with our readers.
