About Northwest Columbus

Built Here, For Here

If you live or work in Northwest Columbus, chances are we already share something in common—I’ve called this community home for more than 30 years.

While I grew up in Cleveland, Northwest Columbus is where I’ve built my life, raised my family, and invested my career. After spending more than three decades as a marketing strategy executive, and as a proud graduate of The Ohio State University, I felt called to bring everything I’d learned back to the community I love.

That’s why I launched Northwest Columbus City Lifestyle.

This platform was created to do more than promote businesses—it was built to tell stories, build trust, and connect people. I wanted a place where local businesses could be seen in a meaningful way, where readers could discover brands they genuinely feel good about supporting, and where relationships—not transactions—drive growth.

Every business featured here is part of a carefully curated community. We work with a limited number of partners because credibility matters, and trust is something I take personally. When a business appears in our magazine, our podcast, our digital channels, or our events, it’s because I believe in what they do and how they serve this community.

Northwest Columbus City Lifestyle reflects how people really make decisions—by recognizing a name, hearing a story, meeting someone face to face, and feeling confident in who they choose.

Thank you for being part of this community—whether you’re a reader, a partner, or someone just discovering us. I’m grateful you’re here.

Warmly,

Lisa Federico
