FEATURED iUSER:

REBECCA BELLONCI

Location: Chicago, Illinois

Bio: Rebecca is Head of School at All Day Montessori in Chicago.

She lives in a third-fl oor walkup with her husband, teenage
daughter, dog, and a cat. Keeping a work-life balance is at the top

of her busy to-do list!

ParkChicago: Using this parking app is so much easier than
fi nding a kiosk and printing a ticket to place on your dash-
board. You can even list multiple cars, and extend your time
from your phone if things are running later than planned.

Life360: I use this app to see where my daughter and her
friends are as they explore Chicago—freedom for her with
some peace of mind for me.

Art Institute Chicago: The Art Institute is one of my favor-
ite places. I like to hear about particular paintings, and see
what exhibits are coming next.

C25K 5K Trainer: What an easy way to start running again!
This app provides manageable running and walking inter-
vals that are doable no matter how long you have sat on
the couch. The app tracks your distance and plays music to
help the time fl y by.

Down Dog: When I can, I like to do a little yoga. You can
pick your skill level, which voice feels most soothing (Aus-
tralian male), how long you want to practice, and even the
length of your savasana! Life support in an app.

Merriam-Webster Dictionary: As my daughter enters
ninth grade, she often asks me to defi ne words. I have
learned that it is easier to look up the word and give an
accurate and precise defi nition. Teenagers can be so literal!

Clue Period Tracker: My husband, daughter, and I all have
this app on our phones. Not only does it chart our men-
struation cycles, but we can also track PMS, headaches,
cravings, exercise, and sleep patterns.

Whole Foods: As Amazon Prime members, we have a bar
code and get an additional 10 percent off any item that is
on sale. I like to check the weekly specials, stock up on
staples, and plan the menu with seasonal options. Grapes
are on sale; I should go get some!
