And then I moved to Anchorage a cool city, too, but it's a whole different way of life up there. Right out of college I went to Juneau, Alaska, for three months. It's really a lot more cosmopolitan than a lot of people think it is. I just thought "what a pretty city." I feel like it's changed a lot since then - just in terms of what there is to do, the development, the kind of people who live here. On my interview tour they took me around and they showed me the lake, and some things Downtown. I remember the roads - does anybody fix the roads around here (laughter), because the freeway was all bumpy.īut, honestly, Milwaukee was really pretty. I thought it came off as kind of a working class town. I remember when I first came to Milwaukee for my job interview.
