Born April 6th in Huntington, New York, a suburb on New York City. I’m the only girl with 3 brothers in an Italian American family. Started dancing (ballet and jazz) at the age of six and continued up until an adult. This was my passion and also kept me very fit. In addition, I grew up eating a healthy nutritious diet - mostly Italian/Mediterranean fare and was taught at an early age how to cook this type of food.

I started working out after I stopped taking dance classes on a regular basis and was instantly hooked. I discovered it was just as challenging as dancing. Felt the need to challenge myself as I had in the past with being on stage in dance performances and decided to compete. At the same time, I was bored with my career in public relations and got my certifications so I could start a personal training business. I now have a wonderful business in New York City and have reached a national level of bodybuilding competition. In addition, I am always working on recipe development and have put together low-glycemic, low carbohydrate recipes to give energy, for a cookbook.
