About Me: I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from Montclair State University, where I studied Retail Merchandising & Management. My career included roles as a buyer for Sterns Department Store, a merchandiser, and director of international merchandising for Liz Claiborne. In 2010, I transitioned to a career in Health & Wellness, beginning with aquatic exercise.
From there, my passion for the therapeutic aspects of health & wellness, corrective exercise, and chronic disease prevention grew.
My husband, Bryan, and I have two sons, Matthew & Jonathan, and our dog, Chester.
Hobbies & Interests: I’m an active swim mom to Jonathan, who competes for the Westfield Area YMCA and Oratory Preparatory High School. I’m also involved in volunteering at our parish, serve as the Oratory Prep Booster Club President, and love spending time at the beach.
