Heidi enjoys spending time with her family, which includes her husband, two kids and a puppy. She likes to take trips, visit Lake Michigan beaches and dunes, attend her kids’ activities, play cards, follow University of Michigan sports, read and get together with family and friends. A former pitcher and shortstop who now plays first base, Heidi always looks forward to playing in an annual charity softball game that pits a team of local women lawyers against a team of local judges.
