Contributors Shelly Davis
A graduate from IPFW with a degree in graphic design, Shelly lives and breathes lake life. Raised on Tippy Lake, Shelly grew up fishing, tubing, skiing, and enjoying boat rides with her family. Employed at The Papers Inc. (our publisher) for 28 years, Shelly worked with various publications before rolling up her sleeves + diving into web-based projects. And boy, are we grateful! Shelly is the co-creator of our shiny, sparkly new website (lakelifemagazine.com). When not immersed within a web-based world, Shelly and her husband, Chris, keep busy with their 3 kids (Delaney, Bennett, and Addison), and getting back to the lake on Sundays to spend time with her parents (married 68 years!) and family. Shelly, thank you for your incredible creativity and ingenuity. We’re so grateful to have you on the LAKElife team.

Shelly’s whole lake-loving family
Courtney Sue Rawlinson This all-American, waterloving, world traveling, bernedoodle mom to Jax, is a valued member of LAKElife’s writing team. A graduate with a degree in law + public policy from Indiana UniversityBloomington, Courtney Sue works full-time as a legal coordinator within a global corporation. In her spare time, she’s either freelance writing, undergoing her own interior design + complete home renovation (with her construction-engineer boyfriend, Kam), or she’s accompanying a leashed-Jax as he greets each dog, human, and leaf within her neighborhood. Courtney spends most weekends, when not working on her home or enjoying the lakes, on yet another project— this one with her mom. Together, Courtney Sue and Sue (the editor of this publication, and yours truly) are re-creating a fun, online platform of positivity about ‘life’— where no matter the shoes you’re in, you’re welcome (InSuesShoes.com). Courtney is a go-getter with class, intelligence— and a genuine smile that’ll warm your heart. Courtney, thank you for your seen and unseen contributions to LAKElife, for your can-do attitude, for keeping your mother going when needed, and for having the cutest granddog an editor could have. Thank you for joining this journey, too, Courtney Sue.
