Back in July, I wrote about the ‘New Normal’ and my resistance to accept the changes that came as a result of the pandemic. Since publishing that post, I’ve spent a considerable amount of time adjusting and adapting to these changes, much like everyone else. If I’m being honest though, I’m still really struggling withRead more

Around this time two weeks ago, I was in my glory as Medix hosted our 2021 Kick-Off Meeting. I’ve written about our meetings on a handful of occasions, but this three-day event is easily one of my favorite times of the year. You may recall, but Medix made the arduous decision to cancel last year’sRead more
Maybe it’s just me, or maybe everyone is feeling this to some degree, but the New Year hasn’t felt symbolically ‘new’ at all; rather it seems we ran headfirst into 2021 and haven’t looked back.

A new year is among us, and once again school is underway across the nation. Some schools have returned for the second half of the year in a semi-normal capacity, though it seems most have opted to continue virtual learning for the foreseeable future.

2021 marks Medix’s 20th year in business. I could not be more excited about our journey so far and proud of all we have accomplished across the Medix family. 20 years ago, I founded Medix in a small office space in the Chicago suburbs. It has since evolved into something amazing – a purpose-driven businessRead more
November 3 is a day like any other for most of you, yet a day I wish I could forget. As the calendar struck 11/3/2020, I commemorated the 18th year of my mother’s passing. Unlike what books, movies and wise friends tell you – it doesn’t actually get any easier. Losing a parent is life-altering.Read more
2019 ended much like every year before it. My dad scheduled his final appointments in Chicago with his physicians; he loaded his suitcase, and he flew back to Greece. For those of you who don’t know, my dad has spent winters with my family in Illinois for the last decade plus and then returns toRead more
I feel confident assuming that everyone reading this has had at least one moment in their life that’s ingrained in their memory. It doesn’t have to be anything elaborate, like a wedding or the birth of a child, but rather one small, unassuming glimpse of time, to which the world completely stops. For me, thisRead more
September marks a special time on the calendar for me. Not only is it Childhood Cancer Awareness month, but it’s also typically around the time when football is fully underway. Over the years, football has become a vehicle that drives many amazing traditions both on and off the field. For me personally, a new seasonRead more
