Hey there! I’m Jana (pronounced Jan-uh), the proud new publisher and editor-in-chief of Macaroni Kid Citrus Heights, Fair Oaks, and Carmichael. When I'm not wrangling my three energetic kiddos (all under 10 — so, yes, there’s always something happening), I’m out exploring family-friendly events, local gems, and hidden outdoor treasures in our beautiful community. Whether it's discovering a new park, attending a local festival, or just soaking up the sunshine, I’m always on the lookout for fun and enriching activities for families like yours.
I’m a wife, a mom, and an adventurer at heart — but you’ll often find me with a cup of coffee in hand (because, well, three kids!). My mission is to make Macaroni Kid your go-to resource for everything happening in Citrus Heights, Fair Oaks, and Carmichael. I believe in the power of connection and community, and I’m thrilled to bring you the best local events, activities, and opportunities for your family.
Whether you're looking for the latest kid-friendly event or trying to find that perfect hidden spot for a weekend outing, I'm here to help! If you're a local business or organization looking to collaborate, I’d love to partner up and highlight what makes your offerings great. Together, we can help our community thrive!
I’m excited to be part of this journey and to share all the fun and family-friendly happenings that make our area so special.
