Hi, I'm Chloe! I've worked at Little Jewels since May 2024, starting in flamingo and moving into firefly later. I've lived in Illinois my whole life, and I have two cats, named Mac and Cheese. In my free time, I enjoy listening to music, playing video games, and learning the basics to whatever foreign language catches my attention.
