The transition from cubicle to a corner of your home hasn’t been easy for many of us. Working from home has really been a huge adjustment. What to buy? Where to set up? During a pandemic??? All of this can be a bit overwhelming. Luckily, the “work from home” territory is not new to my world. As a freelancer, you become accustomed to self-motivation, isolation, and what you need to make your home office work efficiently. So it’s a pleasure to share a few products, with CBS 2 Chicago viewers, that makes things a little bit easier.

Below is information on each product
