About

Hello there! I'm Josie Rivera, and I couldn't be more excited to share that I'm a proud small business owner from Lockport, IL.  In 2023, I launched my dream venture, “Simply Josie Rivera Sweets & Treats, LLC,”  home bakery, certified with Will County.

I was born and raised in Chicago. My family and I moved to Lockport in 2022. I’m so grateful for my three amazing kids and super supportive husband who have made this dream a reality!

I’m actively involved in the Lockport Women’s Club; and a proud Board Member of the Lockport Chamber of Commerce.

With an A.A.S in Culinary Arts from Le Cordon Bleu Institute, Chicago, a bachelor's from Roosevelt University, and a master’s in aviation leadership from Lewis University, I spent 30 incredible years in operational leadership before taking the exhilarating leap to start my own business!

 

Baking and hosting unforgettable events have always been my passion! From organizing birthdays, weddings, Quinceñaera's, to anniversaries, I’ve loved creating joyful moments for friends and family.

Now, I have decided to share my skill and talent; and I look forward to creating something special for you!
