Star Wars Celebration Schedule

Star Wars Celebration is here!!

I am so excited to be in Chicago. This is the view from my window this morning as I prepare to head down to McCormick Place.

Here’s where to find me at the show (but if you see me mooching around on the floor please come up and say hi!)

I’ll also be popping up in a few surprising places, so keep your eyes peeled!
